Ms Quinlivan QC and Ms Askin appeared for the appellants, Mr Scoffield QC and Mr Henry for the Coroner, Mr Aldworth QC and Mr Egan for the Ministry of Defence (“MOD”) and a written intervention was made by Ms Campbell on behalf of Inquest. We are grateful to all counsel for their helpful oral and written submissions. At the end of the hearing because of the imminence of the commencement of the inquest we indicated that the appeal should be dismissed but invited the appellants to consider an application under section 17A(4)(b) of the 1959 Act. These are our reasons. Background [2] The appellants are the mothers of two soldiers who were found dead at Abercorn Barracks, Ballykinler Northern Ireland.
