Order of Business.
Labhrás Ó Murchú (Fianna Fail)
Is the Leader aware of an Amnesty International report regarding the problems in the Colombian judicial system, including the use of torture on prisoners and the intimidation of witnesses? After raising some weeks ago the matter of the three Irishmen facing trial there, I was disappointed to receive hate mail. I also received hate mail in the past when campaigning on human rights issues. I compliment Senator White and wish her well on her human rights mission. One of the reasons that so many suffered so much from miscarriages of justice in the past was that too few did too little, too late.
