Emmet Stagg

Question:

81 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if the Garda investigation into complaints that luxury cars used to transport VIPs during the Irish Presidency of the European Union may not have been licensed as commercial vehicles, is complete; if action has been taken following this investigation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30102/04]

Written answers

Minister for Foreign Affairs (Mr. D. Ahern)

I am aware that a complaint was received by the Garda's carriage office concerning the use of certain vehicles during the course of the Irish Presidency of the European Union. It would be inappropriate for me to comment on the matter until the investigation has been completed and the complainant notified of the outcome.
