Five possibilities for truth recovery
1. Drawing a line under the past, which would mean doing nothing new to take forward the process of truth recovery.
2. Internal organisational investigation, involving groups involved in violence taking responsibility to help victims' relatives uncover the truth about what happened to their loved ones.
3. Community-based truth recovery, which would mean communities devising and carrying out their own forms of truth recovery, largely through the collection and documentation of previously untold testimonies and stories.
4. The British and Irish governments setting up an independent truth recovery commission to explore the causes, context and consequence of violence, with the power to compel witnesses to give evidence and to grant amnesty as well as, potentially, recommending prosecution.
5. A commission of historical clarification, which would devise an independent, authoritative, historical narrative of the years of conflict and why they happened, aimed at limiting misrepresentations and disagreements and helping to prevent violence in the future based on grudges and manipulations.
