Bernard Allen (Cork North Central, Fine Gael)

As regards the invitation to the US Ambassador to appear before the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs, it would be in all our interests to have these issues cleared up and to have a friendly exchange of views. Will the Minister use his good offices, as I am sure he will meet him for Christmas drinks or whatever? Perhaps he could ask him to deal with the committee on these important issues.
