Sir, – Your report of Enda Kenny’s passionate speech about the legacy of the Great Famine (Home News, May 14th) came just days before the images on our TV screens of the food crisis in the Sahel region of Africa. Our legacy – which has seen Ireland become a leader in the fight against hunger – must be protected – as much the plan towards reaching the UN aid target of 0.7 per cent by 2015. – Yours, etc,
