Seems Fine Gael are more open to this sort of thing since Simon Coveney
got elected.  Good stuff.

What I wanted to say is please, please, please don't send individual
letters to politicians claiming to represent the ILUG (not that I'm
suggesting you are of course this is mainly aimed at anyone who may be
planning such a letter).

The only people entitled to do that are the committee, who were elected
to handle such things.  Nobody else should attempt to misrepresent their
opinion as being the official position of the organisation as a whole.

Regards,

Ruairí
