THE EDITOR, Sir: RECENTLY, A number of persons have been expressing dismay that anyone would criticise the Government's raiding of NHT and NIF funds for the purpose of helping the poor and indigent.

THE EDITOR, Sir: I SUPPORT the call for special arrangements to be made regarding 'high risk' prisoners rubbing shoulders with the public. Last year, I was part of a fairly benign case which was heard at the Supreme Court.
