HC Deb 15 July 1902 vol 111 c252
MR. LEAMY (Kildare, N.)

I beg to ask Mr. Attorney General for Ireland if, under the provisions of the Extradition Treaty between Great Britain and Ireland and the United States, a person charged with cattle houghing, arson and perjury in Ireland, who has found refuge in the United States, can be brought to Ireland for trial there.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. ATKINSON,) Londonderry, N.

Yes, sir. The Extradition Treaty between this country and the United States applies to some of these crimes.

MR. LEAMY

Is it the intention of the Irish Government to apply for the extradition of Sheridan?

MR. ATKINSON

I must have notice of the Question.

*MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! The hon. Member must put that Question down.
