This issue has recently been raised in a letter to me, which also spoke in very warm terms indeed of Ireland's advocacy on behalf of the people of Darfur, from the founder of the Sudan Divestment Campaign-Ireland.
My colleague, the Minister of State Conor Lenihan T.D., will meet with representatives of the Campaign on Thursday next, 9 November, and further meetings can be arranged with the Department, if desired. I will, of course, be happy to study any specific proposals which may be made by the Divestment Campaign.
