We just heard this morning that Professor Brendan Walsh, formerly of UCD School of Economics and the ESRI, passed away suddenly.
Brendan was a hugely important and influential figure in the Irish economics community and a terrific colleague to boot.
People better qualified than me will no doubt write an appreciation, but in the meantime, deepest sympathies are extended to his family.
