It's a senstive issue and one which divides opinion- who should get Troubles related compensation? The Free Presbyterian minister David McIlveen has said he would not necessarily object to Troubles-related compensation for ex-paramilitaries who needed support. He told BBC's Sunday Sequence programme he recognised it was a "sensitive issue". However, he added that every person should be assessed anonymously and "according to their specific needs". Stephen got the views of commentator Patricia MacBride and Kenny Donaldson spokesman for Innocent Victims United.
