An Irish government minister forced to evacuate from a peace building event in Belfast after a bomb threat has returned to complete his interrupted speech.
Mr Coveney had been delivering an address at an event organised by the John and Pat Hume Foundation when the alert happened in March.The Houben Centre on the Crumlin Road was evacuated and a funeral service at nearby Holy Cross church was disrupted. "A family funeral next door at Holy Cross was disrupted also. That was a futile, cowardly exercise in community control. It serves no-one, no good purpose, except to drag the reputation of this decent community backwards to darker days.
