asked the Minister for External Affairs the cost of the visit to Ireland of Doctor Sukarno of Indonesia; and the exact nature of the functions that were provided in his honour.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Visit of Dr. Sukarno.
5.
Dr. Sukarno visited Ireland on the forenoon of 25th May, 1961, and left that afternoon. The Taoiseach gave a luncheon in his honour.
As I have indicated on previous occasions I do not consider it appropriate that the cost of hospitality to a State guest should be published.
