I do not say it as a criticism; I am saying that the genius of the project is not being recognised.

One can never tell people long and loud enough about the really great, creative things being done nationally by voluntary organisations, one of which is the witnesses' organisation. The witnesses could put their heads together and ask how they are going to let everyone in Ireland know about this. We all had an aunt, an uncle, a great-aunt or a grandparent who fuelled us to give and to do things; I had such an aunt. That energy is needed. The witnesses will have to sit down and think of ways to do that, whether through the media or one of a thousand other ways. They must get that energy behind it. That is the only reason I say what I have said. It is an absolutely brilliant project.
