In view of the atrocities currently taking place in Yugoslavia, and in the context of the decision of the international war crimes tribunal last week on the Yugoslav leadership, it is totally and utterly unacceptable and untenable that this [Ireland-Yugoslavia] match should go ahead.

- Mr Brian O'Shea (Labour)

Everybody deplores what is happening . . . We should give UEFA the opportunity to come into line on this. If it does not do so, my colleagues and I will immediately consider how to react.

- The Minister for Justice, Mr O'Donoghue

Is the Taoiseach aware that some of the people currently in leadership positions in Sinn Fein were involved in the original decision to murder these people [the disappeared] to keep secret their places of burial and to malign their memory?
