2:05Now PlayingThe Irish government is to bring a legal case against the UK under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
The inter-state case is over the UK's decision to bring in the Northern Ireland Troubles Legacy Act, deputy prime minister Micheal Martin has confirmed.
The act became UK law in September 2023. It looks to end legal proceedings relating to the Troubles by granting immunity to people who cooperate with the new Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery (ICRIR).
