Mr. Barry Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what assessment he has made of the implications for the future of the Anglo-Irish Agreement of the recent difficulties over extradition from Eire.

Mr. Stanley

These difficulties were discussed at the meeting of the Anglo-Irish Intergovernmental Conference on 17 June, when both British and Irish Ministers reaffirmed their determination to ensure effective extradition arrangements. My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister and the Taoiseach reaffirmed their respective Governments' total commitment to the Anglo-Irish Agreement earlier this week.
