DAMIEN FLINTER,
Sir, - I note that the new Fine Gael leader has appointed Olivia Mitchell to the shadow portfolio of Health and Children. If I have it right it was a Bill proposed by Ms Mitchell which prompted the recent controversial legislation on trespass, introduced by Bobby Molloy, and approved almost unanimously just before his embarrassment on a different issue.
Would it be a rude interruption of Ms Mitchell's political honeymoon to ask if she has any radical proposals for the protection of the health and welfare of the most vulnerable children on the island? - Yours, etc.,
DAMIEN FLINTER,
