Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael)

I congratulate the new Ministers, Deputies Carey and Killeen, and the new Government Whip, Deputy Curran, on their appointments. I share a border with Deputies Carey and Curran and I have much respect for their work on the ground. I congratulate the Tánaiste on her appointment as Minister responsible for education and I sincerely hope she gets on as well with Deputy Brian Hayes as she did with me.
