‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Return to N.I. of Irish Prisoners. Prison locations convenient for families
Summary
De Rossa asked whether prisoners could be held near routes convenient for visiting families. The Minister acknowledged the difficulties but said he would raise the matter with the British Government.
The question I had intended to ask has been covered by Deputy Collins. Has the Minister been in touch with the British authorities to ensure that Irish prisoners would be located in prisons convenient for families travelling from here to visit them? Relatives might have to cross to Liverpool, for instance, and then travel to Scotland.
