Sir, - With regard to recent correspondence on bilingual signage, what has motivated the State companies, An Post and Telecom Eireann, to recently implement a monolingual policy on post boxes and telephone booth exteriors? Why drop the Irish text now? Why demean Irish in this way? Surely both official languages can easily be accommodated in these type of situations. - Yours, etc., Seamas Mac Philib,
Ranelagh Road, Dublin 6.
