A group of victims campaigners have travelled to Westminster to meet with political party leaders from the House of Lords and MPs to discuss the Government's legacy proposals.
In July, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Brandon Lewis announced plans for a statute of limitations which would see an end to all prosecutions for Troubles related incidents that occurred up to April 1998.
It would apply to both former military personnel and ex-paramilitaries.
Some of the campaigners attending the meeting today include Raymond McCord whose son Raymond Jr was killed by the UVF, Julie Hambleton whose sister Maxine was killed in the Birmingham pub bombings and Michael Gallagher whose son Aiden was murdered in the Omagh bombing.
.
Meanwhile. John Teggart whose father Danny was murdered in the Ballymurphy massacre told Q Radio they're willing to keep pushing Prime Minister Boris Johnson to take the legacy proposals off the table.
