Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

Before you say, "bhuailimid ar aghaidh", while we did not support your nomination for the reasons I have stated, I congratulate you on your election by the Dáil and wish you every success in the Chair. I am glad to hear you pronounce that you will follow the rules and guidelines of the House in a fair and impartial manner. Arising from that, you can rest assured of the co-operation of the Members of this side of the House in doing our duty.
