A statement made by Mr Proinsias De Rossa in the Dail debate on recent problems in the Department of Justice was misquoted twice in the editions of November 13th. What the Minister said was: "This is a spurious and opportunistic motion on the part of the Opposition. It seeks to inflate an admittedly serious chain of administrative errors or omissions into an attack on the cohesion of the Government and three most principled members of the Government".
