She said that another donation in the amount of €634.87 was returned to the donor. On 4 July 2002 the Standards Commission requested her to provide the outstanding information. On 18 July 2002 Mrs. Thornton advised that the organisation had changed its name to Éire ar son na Beatha and that the responsible person is Mr. Patrick Buckley, Glenrue, Ballinclea Road, Killiney, Co Dublin.
