Rory O'Hanlon (Cavan-Monaghan, Ceann Comhairle)

Before proceeding with business, I wish on my own behalf and on behalf of Members of Dáil Éireann to offer a céad míle fáilte, a most sincere welcome, to Mr. Yves Deniaud, chairman of the French-Irish Parliamentary Friendship Group and his delegation. I express the hope that they will find their visit enjoyable, successful and to our mutual benefit.
