Question (219).  - Finian McGrath T.D. asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if the Shot At Dawn Campaign (details supplied) pardons issue; if there are further developments from the British authorities. [25743/04]

Minister for Foreign Affairs (Mr. D. Ahern):  My Department is finalising a report, which we intend to forward to the British side. The research on which the report is based substantiates the concerns about these cases, which moved us to support the Shot at Dawn Campaign. Once complete, this report will be passed to the British side and it is envisaged that further discussion will take place once they have had the necessary time to consider its contents. My officials have remained in close contact with the Shot at Dawn Campaign (Ireland) co-ordinator, Mr. Mulvany, throughout these deliberations, and will continue to update him regularly as developments arise in the period ahead.
