Belfast: Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action, 54pp. For summary see Scope, Oct. 1990 pp.14-16. This report investigates the practise of governments refusing to grant aid groups/organisations deemed of having "sufficiently close links with paramilitary organisations to give rise to a grave risk that to give support to those groups would have the effect of improving the standing or furthering the aims of a paramilitary organisation" (Douglas Hurd 1985). The latest victim is the Irish language nursery providing group Glor na nGael.

Our work is only possible with your support.
