Sir, – Regarding No 9 in Frank McNally’s “50 Things I love about Ireland in the 2020s” (February 6th). The “Libeskind-designed banking wing of Mountjoy Jail and its adjoining stone-breakers’ yard” is now needed more than ever.

Perhaps another urgent nocturnal sitting of the Dáil and Seanad could hasten its construction? Hopefully our many unemployed construction workers would welcome this government incentive. – Yours, etc,
