Mary White (Fianna Fail)

I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch. I am confident she is an inspirational lady and, if I can be flaithúlach, she is charismatic. My 40 year old daughter, my only child, always said that Deputy Lynch, during her time as a Deputy, was the most charismatic person on television. That is the greatest compliment I could give her. My husband concurs. He saw Deputy Lynch on "Prime Time" recently and said to me: "I always told you how brilliant she was."
