I assume that there may well be some such "arrangement or agreement" to that effect as the Republic has "a limited Air Defence capability". I remember going to the Irish Air Corps Dublin Base some 20+ years ago and Dublin Centre instructed us to "Call Irish Military on 120.0 - GOOD LUCK".

After landing we were invited to the Officers Mess where we we met by a Reservist Officer who greeted us by saying "As far as I am concerned you are all legitimate targets".

Dublin International was better - we got Irish Special Branch escorts who took over the First Class Cocktail Bar to look after us.

PS If you are intertested - does that mean you have trouble with your interstices?
