Correspondence regarding the attendance of Catholics at lectures in Public Administration held in Trinity College. Catholics have requested permission to attend the Michaelmas Term lectures, so + McQuaid wishes to know from Mr. John Leydon, President, how the Institute proposes to safeguard, in its arrangements, the conscience of Catholics who wish to observe the law of the Church, enacted by the Plenary Council and confirmed by the Holy See, in regard to Trinity College, Dublin. The Institute of Public Administration (IPA) took over from the Civics Institute and inherited the task of organizing lectures in public administration which constitute an adjunct to the course set by Trinity College for its Diploma in Public Administration. The IPA assumes that Catholics attending the course have already received the necessary permission. +McQuaid points out that the Archbishop of Dublin never recognized the non-denominational Civics Institute and regrets that the IPA has not arranged for lectures in the University that the Hierarchy has accepted as it safeguards the rights of conscience of Catholics. He hoped that it would organize University lectures for the Catholic members who wished to obey the law of the Church. The IPA changed venue for its lectures to the Royal Irish Academy in Dawson Street .
