John Deasy (Waterford, Fine Gael)

President Mugabe has indicated he will attend the EU-Africa Summit in Lisbon. I understand the British Prime Minister, Mr. Gordon Brown, has said he will not attend the summit if President Mugabe is there. What is the Government's stance on President Mugabe's attendance in Lisbon? If he shows up at the summit, will an official delegation from Ireland be in attendance?
