I WAS interested in the letters from Foras na Gaeilge (July 20) and Darren Mac an Phríora (July 13) regarding the approach of Foras to the promotion of the Irish language at local level and the €3.6 million fund set up for this purpose.

DR PAT WALLACE, director of the National Museum of Ireland, is to be commended for the very positive and sincere oration he gave at the annual Béal na Bláth commemoration in honour of Michael Collins.
