HC Deb 20 January 1986 vol 90 c33W
Mr. Gow

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations he has made to the Government of the Republic of Ireland about the accession of that Government to the European convention on the suppression of terrorism; and when he expects that accession to take place.

Mr. Eggar

The Government of the Republic of Ireland are well aware of our views on this subject. They announced in the joint communiqué of November 1985 (Cmnd. 9657) their intention to accede to the European convention on the suppression of terrorism as soon as possible.
