Ms Quilligan is very welcome. I thought there was one Quilligan in Killarney or Tralee.

I agree with the recommendation of the joint committee, of which I am not a member. Like Senator Cummins, I am interested in hearing what Ms Quilligan envisages should be the next step.

On the wider issue, while I accept that Travellers are an ethnic minority, did this concept develop from practice and custom? Given that we are all Irish, where did the idea begin or where does it have its root?
