Paula Butterly (Louth, Fine Gael)

On my behalf and, I presume, that of my colleagues, I wish the Cathaoirleach well in his term. There are three freshman members of the committee. I am heartened to see there are also more seasoned politicians around the table. I hope they will guide us. Two of the most important aspects of this committee are transparency and impartiality. I am looking forward to seeing the work plan, aside from the legislative scrutiny of which we will take due note. I look forward to hearing ideas from all parties and people, without any particular slant. I wish the Cathaoirleach the best of luck.
