Brendan Howlin (Wexford, Labour)

I wish to add my voice to those sending messages of sympathy to my constituents in Wexford. Unfortunately, the seafaring people in the coastal areas of Kilmore, Fethard and Slade have all too often been visited by tragedy. I am familiar with the trauma that must now be endured. I wish every success to the rescue services in their efforts to recover Mr. Pat Colfer and I thank them. I wish the coastal crews well in their difficult task of combing the coast of Wexford.
