High Court Order Restoring Solicitor to Roll BEFORE The President

In his report for the year 1980/81 the Hon. Secretary noted that there were now 82 members of the Association. He paid tribute to the late John Shee, who had been State solicitor of the South Riding of the county for over 30 years and who had recently died. The Association had submitted reports on the state of the Court Houses in its area to the Law Society. The Association's Annual Dinner had attracted the largest attendance ever. The Hon. Secretary had given notice of his retirement, after some 41 years, being concerned at becoming "set in one's ways, narrow minded, conservative, intolerant and not very adventurous." It will be noted from the list of officers, that the Association being presumably unable to diagnose all or any of these symptoms in the incumbent, duly re-elected him! Officers for the year 1981/82: President David Hodgins Vice President Kieran T. Flynn Hon. Secretary John Carrigan Irish Association The Gazette has received a Press release from the newly founded Irish Association of Lawyers for the Defence of the Unborn. Part of the release was as follows: "At a meeting held in Dublin on Thursday 28th May 1981 the Irish Association of Lawyers for the Defence of the Unborn was established. The Chairman is Dermot Kinlen S.C. The Association was founded by a group of lawyers, is completely independent of all other organisations and is non-sectarian. Membership is open to members of the Bar, to Solicitors, to academic and non-practising lawyers, to ar- ticled clerks, to law students, to legal executives and to all persons with a legal qualification. There is no sub- scription and there are no specific obligations, except to support the aims of the Association. Members accept the undisputed findings of modern embryology that human life begins at conception. They therefore hold that natural justice requires that the un- born child, no matter how young, should enjoy the same full protection of the criminal law as is enjoyed by any other human being. The Association plans to arrange conferences for members on various aspects of the legal situation of the unborn child and is also pleased to provide speakers for meetings of other organisations on request." The release was given to the Gazette by one of the Honorary organisers, Paul Byrne, c/o 69 Merrion Road, Dublin 4. 121 of Lawyers for the Defence of the Unborn
