Dáil Éireann debate -
Thursday, 30 Jun 1988

Vol. 382 No. 11

Written Answers. - Irish Hostage in Lebanon.

45.

asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if he will consider asking an all-party deputation from Dáil Éireann to go to Teheran to request the Iranian Government to use its influence on behalf of Brian Keenan.

As the House is aware from answers to previous parliamentary questions, the Government are making extensive and continuous inquiries with the Iranian and other Governments regarding the whereabouts and well-being of Mr. Brian Keenan. While I appreciate the Deputy's suggestion I do not believe that an all-party delegation along the lines suggested would be appropriate at the present time.
