Sir, - Those who may have first-hand knowledge of events on and surrounding January 30th, 1972 should come forward. Information from citizens and former soldiers or police officers would be helpful.
Allegations have been made that there were more than 14 fatal shootings on that day. How many people have been missing since then? How many were taken to hospital or surgeries in the Irish republic? Were any scientific tests done on their persons or clothing?
Citizens in the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland who have any such knowledge should now come forward. If there is concern about reprisals or confidentiality, Martin Smyth MP, Belfast South, or Lord Molyneaux of Killead would be glad to assist. - Yours, etc.,
From Rev W. Martin Smyth MP
House of Commons, London SW1.
