Madam, - Your southern correspondent reports (February 27th) that the proposed changes to the sanctuary of St Colman's Cathedral in Cobh were "sought by the trustees to bring the church in line with the liturgical requirements of Vatican II".
While that may be the view of the trustees, a perusal of the documents of the Second Vatican Council will show that the council fathers mandated no such changes. - Yours, etc,
KIERON WOOD, Rathfarnham, Dublin 16.
