Tipperary Bar

Association

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!

Irish Association

of Lawyers for

the Defence of

the Unborn

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.
