I propose to take Questions Nos. 373 and 382 together.
In March 2005, the Government approved the issue of a commemorative stamp in honour of Michael Davitt as part of the 2006 special and commemorative stamp programme. The design of the stamp was approved by the Government in December 2005 and the stamp is due to be issued in September.
