I have requested a report from the Garda authorities in relation to the matter referred to by the Deputy. I will contact the Deputy again when the report is to hand.

I am informed by my colleague, the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, that Diplomatic agents duly accredited here, who are entitled to privileges and immunities in accordance with Article 31 of the Vienna Convention, are expected to respect Irish laws and regulations.
