‘Mica scandal – a national reckoning’

Sir, – Una Mullally calls for national solidarity with people whose homes are affected by crumbling mica and pyrite blocks and the heartbreak it has produced in their lives ("Mica scandal should be a moment of national reckoning", Opinion and Analysis, June 14th).
