ANN LEDWITH,
Sir, - Your paper devoted almost an entire page TO detailing Willie O'Dea's new initiatives to increase the number of women on State boards. On the same day the Taoiseach announced his nominations to the Seanad nine men and two women.
Maybe Willie O'Dea genuinely wants to increase the participation of women in public bodies, but Bertie obviously has other ideas. Another case of "do as we say, not as we do" from the current Government. - Yours, etc.,
