COUNCIL ELECTIONS

JOHN MURPHY,

JOHN MURPHY,

Sir, - Contrary to the allegation made in your letters page of February 5th over the name of John Quinn, I did not canvass on behalf of any candidate in the county council elections during my term of office as Chairman of Mount Merrion Residents' Association, though I was perfectly free to do so if I wished.

The association's executive committee, sub-committees and consultative council includes people who, in their personal capacities, support all of the mainstream political parties. The association's only requirement in that regard is that they leave their politics aside when they are engaged on MMRA business. - Yours, etc.,

JOHN MURPHY,
