Also raised at Forum on Europe

The United States demand for the extradition of Workers' Party President Sean Garland was raised at a number of high-level meetings today (20th October).

The arrest and attempt to extradite Workers' Party President Sean Garland was debated in Dail Eireann this afternoon (Thurs, 20th October) having being raised on the Adjournment Debate by deputies from several parties including Pat Carey (Fianna Fail), Ruairi Quinn (Labour) and John Gormley (Green Party) who expressed concern at the development and asked the Irish government to raise it with the US administration.

Earlier the issue was raised at the Forum on Europe, where Sean Garland is the Workers' Party representative. Socialist Party TD Joe Higgins called on the Minister for Foreign Affairs Dermot Ahern, who attended the session, to intervene.

Later a delegation from the Workers' Party, led by Party General Secretary John Lowry, met with the Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs Dermot Ahern and Minister of State Noel Treacy who pledged to raise the issue with the United States Ambassador to Ireland Mr. James Kenny.

Yesterday Senator Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael) raised the matter in the Seanad.
