Written Answers. - Shooting Licences.

Michael Ferris

Question:

245 Mr. Ferris asked the Minister for Justice if licences were issued by her Department to out-of-state shooters in 1996; if so, if she will give details of such licences by numbers, nationalities and locations of shoots; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2099/97]

Minister for Justice (Mrs. Owen)

As the matters raised by the Deputy are the subject of current legal proceedings taken by the National Association of Regional Game Councils, it would not be appropriate for me to comment on any matter which is the subject of these proceedings.
