Subject: NEW summons to appear at Loughrea District Court
on Wednesday October 9th 2002.
European Parliament reference:
Petition 809/2001.
Re: Summons
delivered by hand yesterday for me to appear at Loughrea District
Court on Wednesday October 9th 2002 - this time to answer a
NEW charge that I "assaulted
Enda Hoey" of
Galway County Council on May 1st 2002.
Dear Mr Gemelli,
SECTION A:
My affairs have now reached a stage where I feel I have to
point out that the processing time for Petition 809/2001
appears to be taking far too long. To the best of my knowledge,
nothing of any significance has been done (to date) regarding
ANY of the issues I have raised. This has already
produced a number of troublesome consequences for me, and I would
ask you PLEASE to take careful note of the fact
that the difficulties I am experiencing regarding these matters are
actually growing in number, and in strength: instead of getting less
- as I had hoped would happen when I first made my petition for help
to the European Parliament.
With reference to the "Right to
good administration" undertaking, which I assume you will
already know about, Item 1 under Article 41
of the CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
clearly states:
"Every person has the right to have his or her affairs
handled impartially, fairly and within a reasonable time by
the institutions and bodies of the Union."
Before leaving this section, I wish to
stress (again) that the phrase "within
a reasonable time" in the above paragraph has now
become a MAJOR issue for me.

SECTION
B:
Of the problems
I have struggled with during the course of the past four years or
so, the ones which I feel threaten my personal interests most (in
order of priority) are listed below using the numbers "ONE"
to "FOUR":
ONE:
The ongoing difficulties in my family regarding the fact that my
brother and half-sister have NEVER
(to date) received ANY medical treatment which specifically
addresses the psychological damage caused by parental alcoholism:
which, my research suggests, is in breach of Tort Law (in
the Republic of Ireland). Some of the core aspects of this
problem have already been outlined in paragraph 9
of my e-mail letter dated June 14th 2002 to Galway
County Council which can now be seen at www page address:
The overall aspects of this particular family
problem were set out in a six-page letter sent through the
registered post on July 27th 2000 to the
Minister for Health (Mr. Micheal Martin). Copies of the
July 27th 2000 letter to Minister Martin were sent (by registered
post) to Dr. Anne Jeffers (Consultant Psychiatrist,
Western Health Board), to Dr. Sheila Ryan (Chief
Executive of the Western Health Board), and to Mr. Kenneth
Murphy (Director General of The Law Society of Ireland).
When the above mentioned set of letters
sent on July 27th 2000 failed to produce any useful results, I then
sent a copy of the July 27th 2000 letter (with a covering note) to
Prime Minister Ahern on August 24th 2000;
and, when that in turn failed to do any good, I wrote in similar
fashion to President Mary McAleese on
September 14th 2000. (Both of these letters were also sent
through the registered post.)
TWO:
The ongoing problems in my locality relating to
"Waste Management (Amendment) Act 2001" (Republic of
Ireland). I very strongly suspect this law is unconstitutional: and
consequently NOT WORTH THE PAPER IT IS
WRITTEN ON. If this is the case, then it must surely
be one of the very worst indicators imaginable - as
far as the "good administration" undertaking is
concerned?
As has been reported many
times here, Central Government now have very strong plans to
forcefully impose (in bully-like fashion) a
huge superdump in one of three selected areas in
East Galway through the heavy-handed use of "Waste
Management (Amendment) Act 2001": in
spite of the fact that the vast majority (possibly all) of the
locally elected politicians have repeatedly voted against the
locating of such a dump at ANY of the three particular sites in
question. It appears that
Central Government cannot (or will not) accept a
very simple democratically voiced "NO" of the kind
that is FULLY in keeping with Article 28A
of our written Constitution.
Some of the other core problems
connected with "Waste Management (Amendment) Act 2001" have already
been related in section (5) of my e-mail letter
dated August 17th 2002 to the Director of
Public Prosecutions (Mr. James Hamilton). They can now be
viewed in section 5 of the main e-mail text at the following www
page location:
http://homepage.eircom.net/~williamfinnerty/DPP_EU_problems_1_.htm#(5)
As you will already know, I note that
"Waste Management (Amendment) Act 2001" has been mentioned in a
completely separate petition to you made by another
East Galway local resident (Mr. Brendan Kelly) on
February 1st 2002. I further note that
paragraph 12 (half-way down page 2) of the
petition in question (EU reference: Petition 235/2002) contains
an "urgent" request to
the European Parliament to have the validity of
this law checked. The text of Petition 235/2002 can now be viewed
at www page location:
THREE: The several health threats posed by the
ongoing illegal sewage discharges into the river in
the middle of the village right beside my present home. The main
problems are set out at www page address:
I would like to take this opportunity to
point out that the changes made in April 2001 to
the visibility of the unlawful sewage discharges in question were
made by Galway County Council under the supervision
of a person who told me his name was Noel Casey. The
cosmetic changes in question mean that the untreated sewage
discharges indicated on photographs 3
and 4 at the www page address immediately above now
enter the main flow of the river about 50 yards CLOSER
to the pumps used to supply the local community drinking water
supply than they did previous to April 2001.
Far more importantly (as I see it), these
cosmetic changes powerfully demonstrate the arrogance of Galway
County Council's presumption that they are somehow (?) above the
law.
Also relevant to this illegal sewage
problem, are the contents of an article which appeared on
Page 10 of The Irish Times Newspaper dated
August 15th 2002: on the subject of
CRYPTOSPORIDIUM (a water-borne pathogen). Among several
things mentioned in the article are the following: (1)
"It is often fatal for those with
reduced immunity and causes misery for healthy individuals who
contact it."; (2) "Water
chlorination doesn't take this organism out"; (3)
"Animal or human waste is the usual
source of an outbreak, which spreads easily in water supplies."
Further information on the
cryptosporidium subject can be found at www page address:
FOUR: The ongoing neglect of important local
heritage sites. Last
April I was contacted (through the Internet) by an American
businessman who was VERY interested in organising a project to
restore the centuries old set of local buildings known as
Woodlawn House. As a member of a group I belong to named
FOWHG (Friends
Of
Woodlawn
House
Group), I later attended a
number of business meetings where it was estimated that 80 or so
people would be employed for a period of approximately three years
to restore these buildings into a good quality hotel - which would
have sports and conference facilities etcetera on the 115 acre
site. It was further estimated that when the project was completed,
the hotel in question would provide full-time employment for around 50 local people. Though the American person in question appears to
have found people from different countries willing to invest six
figure sums in the project, a number of MAJOR
problems have arisen because of a superdump that a
private company called Celtic Waste are planning to
locate within a mile or so of Woodlawn House:
apparently with the full approval of both
Local and Central Government. Further information
regarding Woodlawn House can be found at www page address:
http://www.finnachta.com/FOWHG_Contact_Form_.htm
Please note also that Local and
Central Government have ONGOING plans to put
a major new road right through the middle of what may be the
remnants of the largest Celtic site in
the Republic of Ireland around the time of Christ:
presumably (?) for the purpose of making it easy for rubbish
trucks to access the superdump they plan to locate close to
the Turoe Stone at the centre of the vast "Oppidum".
Further information regarding this matter can be found in the text
sent to me by research scientist Dr. Kieran Jordan
in March 2001 - which is at www page address:
As far as I know, and although I have
done all I reasonably could to inform the appropriate people, there
has NOT been any significant attempt (to date) made
by archaeologists to investigate the information Dr. Jordan set out
in the notes he sent me. For additional information on this and
other local heritage matters, please see the following www page

_____________________________
SECTION C:
As I believe you will also know already, Item 3
under Article 41 of the CHARTER OF
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION states that:
"Every person has the right to have
the Community make good any damage caused by its institutions or
by its servants in the performance of its duties, in accordance
with the general principles common to the laws of Member States."
As it is the case that I feel I have
suffered MUCH damage as a result of Community
institutions and servants failing in the performance of their
duties, I now wish to have these damages made good: in so far as it
is possible to do so - having due regard for all the time I have
already lost: which of course NOBODY can ever give back
to me, or substitute for. Consequently, I would be
grateful if you could now provide me with the basic practical
information I need to set about implementing the Article 41
principle to "make good" the damage I have been caused relating
to my losses in connection with all matters referred to in this
e-mail.
I hope to be in receipt of all the basic
information requested from you in this section of this e-mail within
the coming 14 days please.
I now feel it necessary to point out that I never received any of
the "acknowledgements of receipt" I requested for the three
letters I posted to EU addresses on March
25th 2002 (to Strasbourg,
Luxembourg, and Brussels). Scanned
copies of the Post Office receipts can be seen at the following
www page address:
Allowing for the fact that I was very suddenly charged yesterday
with some new (and possibly more serious offence),
I now feel I need to have the following two questions answered by
you (in writing) please: (a) Did
the three letters referred to in the paragraph immediately above
ever reach their intended destinations?; and,
(b) on what dates were they received (assuming of
course that they were received)?
Please note that I will not be making
any FINAL decision as to whether (or not) I will be
attending Loughrea District Court on October 9th 2002 until I have
received a written reply from you regarding the information I seek
in this section of this e-mail. This is largely because I do
not believe the District Court in Loughrea (or anywhere else) is the
appropriate place to be hearing my case.
My case concerns VERY serious matters
which includes such things as "neglect of duty" and
"dereliction of duty" (by senior medical officers,
politicians, and lawyers), and State corruption: if
- as I suspect to be the case - "Waste Management (Amendment) Act
2001" is unconstitutional, and the product of collusion involving
senior State lawyers and politicians who have known perfectly well
all along that this law is in breach of Article 28A of our written
Constitution. These are all matters which I believe should be dealt
with by the highest Court in the State: not the lowest; and, if Mr.
Hamilton (The Director of Public Prosecutions here in the Republic
of Ireland) is not willing to take those concerned to task in one or
other of the higher courts here, then I believe ALL PARTS
of my case should be heard by the European Court of Justice. The
DPP's attempt to get me into a District Court on
October 9th 2002 regarding the TINY part which
relates to Mr. Hoey is (I suspect) a form of corrupt trickery.
I have been told (by a number of
different people) that it is widely believed and accepted by
all concerned that attempts to get to the real truth of
matters is a very rough-and-ready business at
District Court level; and, that a considerable amount of
LYING is both expected,
and acceptable, in such places. While such
rough-and-ready arrangements regarding the truth would not suit me
at all, I can easily see they would provide a huge advantage to the
DPP and his colleagues in securing a criminal conviction
against me: all be it a CORRUPT one -
from which, nevertheless, it might be
impossible for me (in practical terms) to EVER free myself of the
stigma.
When the local policeman (Garda
Thomas Kenny) delivered the new summons to me yesterday
afternoon by hand, I understand (from what he then told me) that the
original charge of "threatening to assault" (which
was due to be heard on September 11th 2002) has now been dropped:
and replaced with the possibly more serious one now scheduled to be
heard on Wednesday October 9th 2002.
Finally, as far as this section is
concerned, I feel I should point out that I have NOT
received the photocopy of the papers my brother
signed: which I requested from Mr Hamilton (DPP) in Section
9 my e-mail letter to him dated August 17th 2002. I cannot
help speculating (perhaps wrongly) that the failure to give me this
important information is linked with the decision to seriously ALTER
(without explanation) the charge I am being accused
of. The text of my request to the DPP can be seen at the following
www location:

SECTION D:
Later today I intend to send you a printed (and signed)
copy of this e-mail through the registered post. Also, and partly
for the purpose of providing a translation service into other
European languages, I plan to place the text of this e-mail onto
the Internet at the following www address sometime during this
present weekend:
Sincerely,
Mr William Finnerty.
