Along with the previous speakers, I congratulate the Senator on her re-elevation to the Chair. I also congratulate her on succeeding in having this committee established on a proper and continuous footing. I am certain she will do a very good job. She did a very good job the last time. Better she is getting.

The best experiences I had as a member of the previous committee were on the days we went out of here. I remember, in particular, the visit to Labre Park in Finglas. At home, I mingle with members of the Traveller community a lot. I can understand them and they can understand me, and we get the feel of each other. We, as a committee, need to do a lot more interfacing, not necessarily all in Dublin. I hope that can be put on the schedule. Again, comhghairdeas, a Chathaoirligh.
