The Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Michael McDowell, has said there was 'every reason' to believe there was involvement at some level between security force personnel in Northern Ireland and some of those responsible for the Dublin and Monaghan bombings.
Meanwhile, the Justice for the Forgotten Group, which represents many of the families of those killed or injured in the attacks, has urged some gardai to consider their position in the wake of the MacEntee report, published yesterday.
Mr MacEntee concluded that most of the Garda files on the investigation had disappeared.
In his report, which was published yesterday, Mr MacEntee said he had found no evidence to establish collusion relating to winding down of the garda investigations into the atrocities.
