Sinn Fein MP, Barry McElduff has been suspended from all party activity over a video of him with a Kingsmill-branded loaf on his head on the anniversary of the Kingsmill massacre.
The party had described his post as "inexcusable and indefensible".
In a statement the West Tyrone representative said: "Although I genuinely meant no offence, I accept that my actions were ill-judged and, while unintended, caused deep and unnecessary hurt and pain to the Kingsmill families.
"I apologise unreservedly for this.
"In recognising the serious consequences of my actions, I fully accept the party’s decision to suspend me from all party activity for a period of three months."
