Exchange of minutes between Michael Rynne and Brian Gallagher (Dublin) concerning the overseas adoption of Irish infants

Dublin, 1 April 1949

Legal Adviser.
Would you please say if you agree with the reply I propose to send to Messrs. Crookshank, Leech & Vanston.1

31 Marta, 1949

Mr. Gallagher
I agree with the legal aspects of your draft reply2 but, as we shall probably be asked to grant two Irish passports to two infants for a 4,000 mile voyage into the virtually unknown, it might be as well to consider the policy aspect involved before doing anything further.
