Omagh bombing: UK government announces independent statutory inquiry
There will be an independent statutory inquiry into the Omagh Bombing , the UK government has confirmed.

NI Secretary Chris Heaton-Harris made a statement in The House of Commons on Thursday afternoon.
The Announcement follows long-running legal action brought by a relative of one of the 29 people who died after The Bomb exploded in the County Tyrone town on 15 August 1998.
Bereaved families have been campaigning for an inquiry for More Than a decade.
In July 2021, The High Court found there should be an into whether intelligence information could have prevented The Real IRA attack.
The Judge , Mr Justice Horner, said on the basis of evidence he heard it is plausible the bombing could have been stopped.
He Said any investigation should look specifically at whether a more pro-active campaign of disruption had the prospect of thwarting The Attack .
He did not state The Investigation needed to be in the form of a public inquiry.
Mr Heaton-Harris had pledged to announce the government's response to The Judgment early this year.
The Secretary of state travelled to Omagh in December to meet some of the bereaved families and visit The Site of the bombing and a nearby memorial garden.
While having no jurisdiction to order the Irish government to act on The Matter , Mr Justice Horner urged authorities there to establish their own probe in light of his findings.
Speaking to Irish national broadcaster RTÉ on Thursday morning, Irish Justice Minister Simon Harris said the Irish government in Dublin would wait to see The Detail of The Secretary of state's announcement before considering what action was required.
He Said Mr Heaton-Harris and Tánaiste (deputy Prime Minister ) Micheál Martin had spoken by phone on Wednesday night but that he was not personally aware of what The Secretary of state was going to say in The Commons .
Pressed on the Belfast High Court recommendation that investigations should be carried out by both governments, not just The British government, The Minister said: " The crucial test from my perspective as minister for justice will be what additional support or additionality can we add to that inquiry.
