Fleur Ravensbergen appointed as Northern Ireland's first conflict resolution expert to address paramilitarism

Summary

Fleur Ravensbergen has been appointed as Northern Ireland's first conflict resolution expert. She will assess support for a formal engagement process to address paramilitarism, meeting victims and potentially representatives of loyalist and republican organizations. The appointment follows a joint announcement by the UK and Irish governments in February. However, the Alliance Party, through Naomi Long, has opposed the approach, arguing that stronger law enforcement and targeted community action are more appropriate 28 years after the Good Friday Agreement.
