Madam, - A report in your edition of November 25th on the status of Irish in the EU mentioned Sean Ó Neachtain, "the only native Irish speaker in the European Parliament, and Pronsias de Rossa "a fluent speaker". Bairbre de Brún and Jim Higgins are also fluent and frequent Irish speakers. All four could be heard on a special programme broadcast by Radio na Gaeltachta from Strasbourg last week. - Yours, etc.,
AONGHUS Ó hALMHAIN, Páirc na Seilbhe, Baile an Chinnéidigh, Co Chill Mhantáin.
