Letter from +Sensi to +McQuaid stating that he had received Edward Gleeson, Matthew McQuaid and Rev. James Finucane, President of Rockwell College. He thanks him for giving him effective assistance towards resolving the problems he mentioned the previous day.

Typed note to +McQuaid from James A. MacMahon. Miss Gleeson of the Film Censor’s Office telephoned concerning a French film, ‘Le Defroque’. Wonders if it would be well received in Ireland. Invite to attend.

Correspondence relating to comprehensive education involving + McQuaid, Sean MacGearailt, Fr. Liam Martin and Donogh O’Malley. +McQuaid wished to remind the Minister that on at least three occasions he was given firm assurances by the Minister that a comprehensive school would not be established in Dublin. A proposal to change that assurance would profoundly shock the confidence of the Archbishop. Regarding Ballymun, +McQuaid had already arranged for ample post-primary education with the Christian Brothers and Dominican Sisters. In response the Minister said he was of the opinion that no such global guarantee should have been sought. He would expect that he would not be met with a situation in which the Archbishop would think that he was the person to decide what is ample post-primary education for any area in the Diocese. For +McQuaid these views were gravely erroneous. Notes on meeting between Mother M. Jordana and Mgr. J. O’Regan on the one side and Martin Gleeson, Mr. Donegan and Mr. McCarthy on the other. Memorandum sought. +McQuaid’s response to McGearailt’s letter on 1 August.
