I propose to take Questions Nos. 3, 11, 22 and 25 together.
Article 10 (a) of the Anglo-Irish agreement states that the two Governments shall co-operate to promote the economic and social development of those areas of both parts of Ireland which have suffered most severely from the consequences of the instability of recent years and shall consider the possibility of securing international support for this work. The two Governments have been in close contact on this matter and the Inter-Governmental Conference considered it at their first meeting on 10 December last. It is our intention to establish an international fund to help to promote reconstruction and reconciliation in Ireland. It is not possible, however, to say at this stage what form the fund will take, the specific amounts that may be contributed to it, or the projects that may benefit from it.
The granting of temporary work visas for Irish young people wishing to enter the United States is not connected with discussions on the establishment of the fund.
