Will you support in their demand for a proper train service at Station? Currently we are well served West bound into Galway City. However, there is no East bound train stopping at between 05.35 and 15.35. We need an East bound service that will get people to Dublin at a reasonable time to conduct business.

We urgently seek your support and ask you to contact Myles McHugh at Irish Rail immediately as the new timetable is under review and due to be finalised in the next 10 days.

We look forward to hearing from you.

, Chairman.

In relation to a recent statement from Fine Gael HQ, which included:

"The Party has firmly committed to overhauling animal welfare legislation which is outdated and has not been dealt with by the last Government despite protestations that animal welfare was a priority",

(a) how can Fine Gael justify a contradictory statement which states: "The Fine Gael Party manifesto outlines the Party’s position on stag hunting, which is to reverse the ban".

(b) will you explain how your party can protest that animal welfare is a priority and still support a cruel stag-hunt which terrorises an animal for the pleasure of humans?

(c) will you make representations to Enda Kenny to NOT repeal the ban introduced by the Fianna Fáil/Green Party coalition?
