Soviet citizens seeking asylum at Shannon
Deputy Taylor sought to raise the case of Soviet citizens seeking political asylum at Shannon Airport; the Chair said he would communicate with him.
Before we deal with the next question I wish to make the following point. Some days ago at Question Time I refused a request from a Deputy to raise a matter on the Adjournment. I asked the Deputy if he had any particular reason or if there was any urgency in raising it then and he said there was not. I understand that Deputy Taylor has some difficulty about the matter he has in mind.
Comment on this
