recently qualified, with a view to reviewing the content of
the course.
He was conscious of the employment problems and the
younger members had their own Committee within the
umbrella of the Council. A suggestion had been made that
there should be a minimum salary for persons entering into
employment in the profession. While excellent in theory,
the suggestion might result in disemployment in the
present climate.
To Mr. Farrell, the President pointed out that there was
a statutory obligation to have a Compensation Fund. Last
year, there had been a major claim and the Council was
watching others. The Society has an insurance cover on
the Compensation Fund and, in the case of the present
claims, the cover saved the profession approximately
£800,000. It was obvious that after the major claims the
level of premium and of cover would have to be reviewed.
Mr. O'Mahony complimented the President on the
detailed figures which had been circulated, but he asked if
it would be a good idea to adjourn the meeting for a month
to get further information and think out ideas to help the
Council.
Mr. Curneen thanked the President for his approach to
the meeting. To him, it appeared that the situation was in
good hands and he did not want anything more done.
Mr. Cumeen's remarks were greeted with applause.
Mr. Crivon agreed with Mr. Curneen and said that the
meeting had produced information which had never before
been put before members in General Meeting.
A list of those members who attended the Special
General Meeting is filed with the Minutes of the meeting,
together with Mr. O'Mahony's notes circulated to the
attendance and the information circulated by the
President. •
U.C.G. Graduates Association
At a meeting of UCG graduates in Dublin recently it
was decided to form an association of graduates with the
support of UCG. Further branches of this Association —
Cumann Céimithe na Gaillimhe — will be set up in
Limerick, Sligo, Athlone, Cork and Galway within the
next few months. The primary aim of Cumann Céimithe
na Gaillimhe is to foster and maintain closer links between
UCG and her graduates and between the graduates
themselves.
If you require further information about Cumann
Céimithe na Gaillimhe in general please contact Cathleen
Cunningham at the Development office, UCG, phone

Here are just a few reasons why you may not
wish to have a deposit account at Anglo Irish.
You may prefer a bank so big that you're
identified as a ten digit number but seldom
recognised for yourself.
You may prefer a bank that shuts its doors
during the one hour of the day you can
conveniently get to the bank. And offers, instead, a
machine for you to queue at.
On the other hand, you may prefer a bank
that's small enough to offer you personal service,
that stays open at lunch, that's backed by over £60
million in assets and pays top interest rates on
deposit accounts.
In which case you're probably already
banking with Anglo Irish.
