Sir, - Why was CORI's condemnation of the Government's social welfare policy (The Irish Times, March 13th) not given the same prominence in your paper as the recent - debate? There were front page articles, Editorials and signed articles on the latter, whereas CORI's correct exposing of this Government's failure to provide adequately for those on social welfare, while giving themselves huge increases, received only three small columns on page 4. Speaks volumes, I think. - Yours, etc.,
Patrick Somerville, Alpine Heights, Clondalkin, Dublin 22.
