Madam, - There is an inescapable irony about the Minister for Justice launching a number of new Garda projects to discourage disadvantaged young people from becoming involved in crime or antisocial behaviour on the same day as the pony club in Finglas has its makeshift stables summarily removed by Fingal County Council. Joined up thinking, anyone? - Yours, etc,
RONAN CAHILL, Ranelagh, Dublin 6.
