An editorial in The Irish Times today (1 November 2016) castigates the proposal to move the Seanad into the National Museum building as ‘an atrocious decision verging on vandalism which must be reversed’.
So congratulations to the 1,900 persons who have already signed the IAR Appeal to An Taoiseach and made their voices heard on this important issue.
Please keep the numbers rolling in.
This ‘atrocious decision’ has not yet been reversed.
