I received it by e-mail this morning. I just want to alert my colleagues and the media to this issue. This type of activity is becoming very dangerous and is happening quite often. It is getting more sophisticated. If one receives an e-mail from someone in Nigeria who wants to off-load €7 million one knows it is pretty crazy and ignores it.

I also compliment our colleague, Senator O’Donnell, on her contribution to “Today with Sean O’Rourke” on RTE yesterday, when she highlighted progress in rural areas. She spoke about the set dancing in Paul Tully’s hotel in Castlerea. It was a wonderful item.

Senator O’Donnell brings ordinary situations to public attention at national level. On Sunday, 6 April, the County Roscommon Ploughing Association Championships will be held in Castlestrange in Fuerty, in my parish in County Roscommon. I compliment the committee involved in this event, which brings together people in that area and creates activity for the three local hostelries.
