asked the Minister for Defence if he has any plans for the arrangement of foreign cruises for the Irish Naval Service; and, if so, when such cruises are likely to take place.

I regret that because of the heavy demands on the Naval Service in the security, surveillance and fishery protection roles it has not been possible to arrange foreign cruises for the Naval Service.
I hope, when conditions permit, to approve of some foreign visits by the Naval Service.
