Vol. 195 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Territorial Waters.

16.

asked the Minister for External Affairs whether any further progress has been made in negotiations with regard to the extension of the three-mile limit of territorial waters; and what is the present international position with regard to the extent of territorial waters.

I regret to say that no recent progress has been made towards international agreement on this subject.

There has, in fact, been no substantial change in the position as described by me in the presenting the Estimates of my Department to the Dáil on 6th July, 1961.
