Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

Senator Eugene Murphy has consistently raised this me with me as well and has asked that I would meet the family. I made that commitment to Senator Murphy and to Deputy Kerrane as well. The issue, as the Deputy has outlined, is that the Australian Government has been leading in the discussions but we have also been making representations. It is a very difficult and sad situation for the family and the individual concerned, so we are continuing to work on it. Unfortunately, this is an increasing trend across the world with our citizens and dual citizens, so we will continue to work on this.
