In the light of what Senator Brian Hayes said about the generally marvellous feeling there is towards the athletes in the Special Olympics, it is also unacceptable that a group of Travellers in Ennis should occupy land which was to be used as a welcome site for people participating in the Special Olympics. It was one of the meanest things I had seen in a long time because the people of Ennis had gone to a great deal of trouble preparing a celebration. They had planned a brass band and all kinds of things which the participants would have loved. However, the people concerned, in a mean spirit, moved in and spoiled years of preparation.
