John Gormley

Ceist:

386 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the plans, if any, he has to publish the report of the independent study group established to examine the ways in which the Refugee Act, 1996, can be amended to bring it into line with asylum practices in Europe; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18319/98]

I sought and received tenders for a comparative study between Irish and EU member states refugee legislation. This study is due to be completed by 31 December 1998 and will be an important component in the review of the Refugee Act, 1996. It is intended that the study will be published.
