The question of alleged cooperation by the former Irish government in the US rendition programme is once again in the spotlight. In its (country) report on Ireland the United Nations Committee Against Torture (CAT) observe at paragraph 9: The Committee is concerned at the various reports of the State party's alleged cooperation in a rendition programme, where rendition flights use the State party's airports and airspace. The Committee is also concerned at the inadequate
response by the State party with regard to investigating these allegations (art. 3). The CAT conclude: The State party should provide further information on specific measures taken to investigate allegations of the State party's involvement in rendition programmes and the use of the State party's airports and airspace by flights involved in extraordinary rendition. The State party should provide clarification on such measures and the outcome of the investigations, and take steps to ensure that such cases are prevented.
