I disagree with the comments made about the ambassador's letter. His letter has been enormously effective because we now have a much diluted amendment that seeks very little specific action.

I have no difficulty with Deputy O'Sullivan's comments. I do not feel proprietorial about the matter. I amended the motion in accordance with the wishes of some people to include the point made by Deputy Crowe, that was to make it applicable to all human rights violators. Perhaps it was Deputy Eric Byrne who made the request.
