Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Old I.R.A. Medals: Kerry Applications.

asked the Minister for Defence the number of applications for special service (Old I.R.A.) medals in County Kerry for each of the last four years; and the number of applications which (1) were successful, (2) were rejected and (3) have not yet been considered.
