There is great disturbance about the date on which the Taoiseach will call the general election. He should call it for 3 or 4 July, when the leaving certificate examinations will have been completed and everybody would be free to vote.

I support Senator Glynn's call for an inquiry into the death of Eddie Fullerton, whom I knew. He had a big beard and looked a bit rough but he was a lovely, kind and gentle person. He was a very decent man who was savagely murdered by loyalists. If he had been a member of a party other than Sinn Féin, an investigation would have been carried out long ago. It is not too late, as Senator Glynn said, to bring closure to the matter and hold an inquiry for the sake of the family, if nothing else.
