Séamus McGrath (Cork South-Central, Fianna Fail)

I echo the words of the other members and note my own congratulations to President-elect Connolly. As the others have said, her experience here was very obvious from the word go. I am sorry I did not get to share the committee a bit more with her to learn from her experience, but so be it. She will be a loss to the Committee of Public Accounts, but obviously she is now elevated to being the first citizen of the nation. It is a proud moment for her and I wish her all the best in that role.
