HC Deb 18 March 1996 vol 274 c24W
Mr. Robert McCartney

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list by date and department the presentations made in 1995 by civil servants of the Northern Ireland civil service to the Anglo-Irish secretariat in Maryfield and the subjects so covered. [11683]

Mr. Ancram

To ensure that the Government's policies in relation to Northern Ireland are effectively communicated to the Irish side of the secretariat, Irish officials are frequently briefed on a wide range of subjects which come within the scope of the Anglo-Irish Agreement. Details of such briefings and presentations are not, however, available in the form requested.
