Ahern urged to give 1916 leader's son place of honour
Taoiseach Bertie Ahern was today urged to ensure the last surviving child of an executed 1916 leader is given a place of honour at the commemoration of the 90th anniversary of the Easter Rising.
Labour TD Tommy Broughan said Fr Joseph Mallin, the son of Commandant Michael Mallin, had not yet received an invitation to the Easter Monday ceremonies.
