"The Northern Ireland Office (NIO) has been instrumental in the huge advances achieved in the development of less lethal technology over the past eight years and should be proud of the role it has played. There has been a strong focus on the science and technology required to produce an effective and less potentially lethal alternative. But just as importantly, the development and introduction of stringent training and operational guidance and accountability measures have helped improve safety.”
