The Senator also referred to the groceries order and competition legislation. The reason I knew what point he was about to make was that I heard Mr. Ben Dunne state on radio yesterday that special offers should be made available for defined periods and at all outlets.

Senator Ó Murchú, in referring to the Shot at Dawn Campaign, noted what was done to ordinary people at the time. As conscription was not introduced in Ireland — figuratively speaking, that battle was won — those shot were volunteers. Their executions were sad events and the campaign marks an attempt by the current generation to do address the issue.

Senator Bradford also raised the issue of migrant workers. I am pleased the Joint Committee on European Affairs is compiling a major report on the issue. Senators could feed into the committee's deliberations if the House has a good debate on the issue.

Senator Mansergh indicated his support for the Shot at Dawn Campaign and praised RTE for last night's "Land is Gold" documentary on the Lansdowne estate in Kenmare. He also pointed out, as Senator Norris will be aware, that all the churches requested exemption from the equality legislation.
