    Conflict related inquest records

    Each year PRONI receives many applications requesting access to conflict related inquest records.

    PRONI will be able to conduct an initial search to confirm information relevant to your request is held.  If PRONI does not hold the information or record you requested, PRONI will confirm this.  If the record is already designated as open you will be able to view it onsite or request a copy.  PRONI may be able to direct you to other records held in The National Archives, London or National Archives of Ireland, Dublin.

    Information held by PRONI

    PRONI holds the inquest records of over 3,000 people who died in the conflict.  However, they don't have the records of all the inquests held during that period.

    To find out if PRONI has the inquest record you are seeking, you can search PRONI's eCatalogue by inserting the person's name  and the word inquest or report.

    You can also email or write to PRONI to ask if they have the inquest record. Include the person's name.  It's helpful if you also provide the date the person died, their last address or the date of their inquest.

    Apply for access to inquest records

    PRONI releases information under the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) and the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).  Applicants can decide which process is most suited to their needs.

    Access under the Freedom of Information Act 2000

    Applications can be made for access to inquest records under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.  If you apply for an inquest record under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, the version of the record which is given to you will also be available for other people to see.

    To make an application under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, contact PRONI in writing or by e-mail.
