32. Deputy Eric Byrne asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade in view of the rapidly moving developments in Ukraine and the commitment of the OSCE to engage in both an observatory capacity and an election-monitoring capacity, the reason his Department is sending one long-term observer to Ukraine for the forthcoming presidential elections; if he will reconsider this position as the monitoring of these elections will probably constitute the most important and difficult election monitored by the OSCE to date and, in view of the historical importance of the outcome to that election, proper oversight will be vitally important; if he will confirm his intention to send a substantial delegation of short-term observers to monitor this election; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
