I wish to add a note of caution following the statement made by Senator Leyden in respect of the use of terminology with regard to ethnic minorities. It is something that has become more prevalent in the public sphere recently, especially with regard to Travellers, the Roma community etc. The judicial process has not been gone through and such a statement should not be made until it is found to be true. I call on Senator Leyden to retract it at some stage.
