A victims' campaigner has claimed the British government reached a secret deal with Libya years ago which is blocking compensation for those injured in IRA attacks.
MPs are looking at attacks sponsored by Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's regime in the north African country.
Gaddafi, who died in 2011, was the IRA's main arms supplier during the Troubles.
Libyan-supplied Semtex was used in high-profile attacks including the Enniskillen bombing in 1987.
