Scope and content
Cover letter and two copies of a press release issued following a meeting of the Central Committee of Language Freedom Movement in Kilkenny on 22 September 1968. The cover letter by Patrick Browne, Honorary Secretary of LFM is addressed 'Dear Editor' and refers to media coverage on the recent actions of parents in St. Grellan's Boys National School, Ballinasloe who wish for their children to be educated in English. He writes 'LFM is the only organisation likely to come out wholeheartedly on the parents' side'. The enclosed press release addresses four issues: the rights of parents, similar situations elsewhere, UNESCO guidelines on teaching a second language, and education in Gaeltacht areas. Some handwritten phone messages on back of one of the press releases.
