flag Think tank estimates £2.2-2.7 billion cost to address Northern Ireland's conflict legacy.

flag The Policy Exchange think tank estimates the cost of addressing Northern Ireland's past conflict, "the Troubles," at between £2.2 billion and £2.7 billion. flag This includes costs for inquiries, court cases, inquests, and compensation payouts, with £840 million to £1.4 billion already spent and an additional £1.3 billion expected. flag The think tank warns that costs could rise if the government continues its maximalist approach to legalism and repeals parts of the Legacy Act, potentially allowing former internees like Gerry Adams to seek compensation.
