Vol. 513 No. 4

Written Answers. - Garda Operations.

Ceist:

61 Mr. Coveney asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if his attention has been drawn to the anger on the part of the US intelligence agencies at the release by gardaí of an individual wanted in the United States for his association with two Algerian Muslim fundamentalists indicted on 20 January 2000 for conspiracy to commit acts of terrorism; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2613/00]

I am aware of the reports in question. I am informed by the Garda authorities that there is no basis for the allegations of dissatisfaction contained therein; on the contrary the Garda authorities have informed me that the US authorities have expressed their appreciation to the Garda for the actions taken by them in this matter.
