Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 October 2012
92. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade his views on correspondence (details supplied) regarding Villa Spada; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45583/12]
View answerThe plaques in question were erected about 50 years ago when the Villa Spada was the location of our Embassy to the Holy See. They have been removed following the closure of the resident Embassy to the Holy See and are being replaced by plaques which, for the purpose of assisting Irish citizens and other visitors, will accurately identify the Villa Spada as the location of our Embassy to the Italian Republic. The previous plaques have been preserved.
