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

I thank leaders and Members of the House for the kind remarks. I thank the clerk, assistant clerk, ushers and all the staff in the House that we see and those we do not see. I believe we run a very efficient parliament. The contribution of each and every one of the staff, along with the Members, ensures we have a parliament of which we can be very proud.

I join in the good wishes to Seán Sheils. I am not surprised that everybody has a kind word to say about him because he is a native of Baileborough in the constituency of Cavan-Monaghan so it is only what I would expect. Is not that right Seymour?
