My thanks to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Mr.Charles Flanagan on his support and excellent summary of the problem, as Senator -Eames did in her comment.
I spent my first year 1956-1957 as curate in Rosenallis where I was happy to have met his late father Oliver J. on a few occasions. I ask him to urge the present Minister to make an exception in Annaghdown's urgent need for a graveyard extension allowing for the fact that it is a Protected site and NHA. I am sure she can add a legal proviso that any possible historical treasures found in future digging will legally have State protection.
Please, Minister, make that urgent exception in our case.
