A total of 34 people were murdered and more than 300 injured in a series of blasts across the city and border town on 17 May 1974.

To mark the anniversary, services were held in both Dublin and Monaghan and a minute's silence was observed at both locations.

Sir Iain said: "It was a great honour to be invited to attend this incredibly moving service and have the opportunity to pay our respects to all those who died."
