§ Sir John Biggs-DavisonTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if, following the speech in Derbyshire on 22 April, Her Majesty's Government have received any indication from Dublin of progress in resolving differences over extradition; and if he will make a statement in the context of that speech.
§ Sir Geoffrey HoweThe Irish are fully aware of our views on the need for effective extradition procedures. We hope that there will be an early resolution of the current difficulties.
