The ICEL [Irish Centre for European Law] was founded, June 1988 by Mary Robinson (MR), to advance legal education by focusing on issues arising from the European Community's Single Market Programme, which was designed to achieve an integrated market of ca 320 million by the end of 1992. This initiative was taken at a time when university cutbacks would otherwise have inhibited academic developments in this field. Established and based in Trinity College Dublin, ICEL had MR as its director for the 1st two years, and as Chair of the Executive Board, with Nicholas Robinson (NR) as Administrator. At some point in 1991, Alex Shuster took over as Director and Pauline Curtin as Administrator. NR continued for an unknown period on Board, and MR is listed as a Patron.
