‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Talks with British Prime Minister. Signing the European terrorism convention
Summary
Haughey questioned whether Ireland would sign the convention with reservations; the Taoiseach said only one country had reserved on signature, while several did so on ratification.
Is the Taoiseach aware that his sudden announcement in London of the decision to sign the European Convention on Terrorism has caused a considerable amount of concern? In deciding to sign did the Taoiseach and the Government give any consideration to entering reservations as did many other European countries, particularly in regard to extraditing our own nationals? Could the Taoiseach indicate whether we signed with reservations or unreservedly?
