The Bill excluded ecclesiastical and local authority cemeteries. I have never seen my parish priest or local authority workers cut stone. That is why they are excluded. I am more convinced now of the damage the 1970 private Act did and of the need to repeal it so the problem outlined today will not continue to obtain. I will communicate further with the Minister on this matter.
