The Senate is closing public submissions on the national anthem today.

The 'Timeline 1916 exhibition' and the film 'GPO 1916, Eyewitnesses to History' will run until May 20 at Cork City Hall.

The composer of Ireland's national anthem is to be remembered in a free public lecture at UCC tomorrow evening. 

Seán Ó Suilleabháin got a well deserved round of applause for his superb effort.
