Sir, - Congratulations to Alison Brennan (January 18th) for daring to be so "politically incorrect" as to question the acceptability of Mr Ahern taking Ms Larkin abroad on official trips. So long as the media remain silent on the matter, it is up to individuals to voice their objections on so many grounds, if only as taxpayers. - Yours, etc.,
Mary Collins, Ballinteer Avenue, Dublin 16.
