I refer the Deputy to my reply to a parliamentary question by him on this subject on 24th October 2006 in which I stated that representations have not been received from organisations campaigning for the repatriation of the remains. I also indicated that this matter has not been the subject of discussions with the British Government. The situation remains as conveyed in that reply.
