Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 May 2011
155 Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he has received a security briefing on the presence of terrorist cells in Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11948/11]
Amharc ar fhreagraWhile I receive regular briefings from the Garda Commissioner on security matters it is not the practice to disclose publicly the details of these briefings. I can assure the Deputy, however, that An Garda Síochána maintains extremely close and regular contact with their international counterparts in relation to a broad range of issues, including security and terrorism related issues and they keep myself and the Government fully informed on any emerging threat or issue in this area.
