A team of independent experts is to be appointed to re-examine evidence from the Omagh bombing in an attempt to bring those responsible to justice.
The Northern Ireland Policing Board has decided to set up an independent external overview of past investigations into the 1998 atrocity, in which 29 people were killed.
The move comes as it was revealed that two police officers accused of misleading the court during the trial of Sean Hoey, who was last month acquitted of the bombing, could now face criminal charges themselves.
The Police Ombudsman's Office has confirmed it has passed files on the two scene-of-crime officers to the Public Prosecution Service.
Policing Board member Jeffrey Donaldson said the independent overview would look afresh at the Omagh case.
"The objective is to re-focus on the evidence and bring the focus back again on the need to secure a prosecution."
