Mr Durkan said his thoughts were with the victims, survivors and their families.
Said the Foyle: “I welcome the confirmation that it is now intended to publish the Kenova Report on March 8.
“There was a need for certainty on publication for victims and survivors and that is why I urged the PSNI to provide it.
“It is welcome that they have ended the uncertainty around publication.
“Operation Kenova is a vital element in addressing the legacy of our past.
“The decision of the PPS to date not to prosecute anyone for anything arising from the Kenova investigations has denied families justice and the publication of the report must now provide truth and accountability around the horrific actions of people in state agencies and terror groups.
“I am still concerned there will be people who wish to hide from the Kenova spotlight.
“These people might yet seek to suppress the report by self-serving legal challenge.
“These people care nothing for the pain and trauma of families.
“I hope that they will do the right thing and let the truth be told.”
