Mr. Parry

asked the Prime Minister what representations she has received from the Gaelic Athletic Association concerning the occupation of its land by the Army in Crossmaglen; what reply she has sent; and if she will make a statement.

The Prime Minister

I recently received a letter from Mr. Thomas Walsh of the Gaelic Athletic Association concerning the occupation by the security forces of part of the Association's land in Crossmaglen. A reply has been sent to Mr. Walsh on my behalf from the office of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. I understand that the hon. Member has also written to my right hon. Friend proposing a meeting to discuss this matter, and that this proposal has been accepted.
