My Department responded to the European Commission's requests for information relating to this petition in December 2006, January 2007 and June 2007. The European Parliament's Committee on Petitions visited Ireland in June 2007 and met with officials to discuss, amongst other issues, the subject matter of this petition. My Department has not yet located the files referred to in the response to the European Commission in June 2007.
