YOUR VIEWS: Are all deaths from the Troubles equal?

ADVANCE briefings from the Eames-Bradley report suggest there will be no hierarchy of victims.

It is widely expected that when the report is formally published on Wednesday, all families of people who died in the Troubles will be awarded compensation amounting to 12,000.

The one-off recognition payment will effectively mean that the deaths of innocent victims or security force members will be equated to those of paramilitary murderers.

WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS?

Have the Consultative Group on the Past - set up to draw a line under the legacy of the Troubles - got it right?

Is it correct to say that "a mother's tears are a mother's tears"?

Will a monetary contribution ease the hurt of victims' families who have suffered for so long?

Is it right to put a price on a life?
