Vol. 260 No. 3

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Commemorative Stamp.

50.

asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs whether he will consider withdrawing the issue of the stamp commemorating the civil war of 1922-23 in view of the likely repercussions of such a commemoration both nationally and internationally.

The stamp is being issued to commemorate the Patriot Dead of the 1922-23 period, and I do not envisage adverse national or international repercussions from its issue. The stamp will, therefore, be issued on 1st June, 1972, as planned.
