Dear Comrades,

It is with deep sadness that our Party learns of the passing of comrade Wil van der Klift, former international secretary of the NCPN, and respected comrade in the international communist movement.

Comrade Wil was well known to our Party and held in high esteem. His passing will be a deep loss for your Party and the international movement. Please pass on the condolences of the Central Executive Committee of the Workers Party of Ireland to the Central Committee of the NCPN and to all comrade Wil's comrades, family and friends.

Our red salute to our late comrade!

Gerry Grainger

International Secretary
