Houlihan and Mr. Michael V. O'Mahony, Chairman of the Publications Committee of the Society, also spoke. The re-printing (by a photo process) was by Confi- dential Report Printers Limited (with the hard cover binding by John F. Newman). With few exceptions, the mono-lingual version is entirely comprised of the English version of each Statute — that being the language in which it was passed by the Oireachtas — and the same page numbers are maintained as in the original bound bi- lingual version. A total of 200 full sets of the Statutes have been reprinted, 105 of which were ordered in advance of re- publication. In addition, there were a large number of advance orders for individual volumes by people with incomplete sets. The cost of a full set is £800 plus packing and delivery charge, obtainable only from the Law Society. •
