Vol. 577 No. 3

Written Answers. - Court Case.

John Gormley

Ceist:

234 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if his attention has been drawn to reports that a person (details supplied) in Jordan is being forced by the courts to hand over their two children to a Muslim guardian; if his Department has raised this with the Government of Jordan; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30986/03]

I am aware of the case to which the Deputy refers. My understanding is that the matter remains before the courts in Jordan. Therefore, I do not propose to comment on the issue.
