Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Casement Documents.
asked the Minister for External Affairs whether, in view of the recent statement by Mr. Alfred Noyes concerning the so-called "Casement Diaries," he will make representations to the British Government to have the documents examined by independent experts; further, if he will ask the British Government to have the remains of Casement returned to Ireland.
Comment on this
I do not propose to make the representations suggested.
The matter of the return of Casement's remains is one of which the British Government is constantly kept aware.

I do not know whether my supplementary question arises out of this matter but I ask the indulgence of the Ceann Comhairle. Would the Minister make available to the Library a copy of the full text of Dr. Noyes' statement in regard to the matter?
