HC Deb 25 January 1973 vol 849 c204W
Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Minister of State for Defence what reports have been received of foreign officers, advisers and technicians serving with, or otherwise assisting the IRA.

Mr. Blaker

I am aware that such suggestions have been made occasionally in the Press, but I have received no specific evidence to substantiate the involvement with the IRA of foreigners other than certain citizens of the Republic of Ireland.
