Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

On behalf of the Labour Party, I wish Victor a happy and active retirement. The ushers of the House are very important for Members, particularly for new Deputies for whom there is not a book available on how to be a Teachta Dála and who rely on the guidance of the ushers, particularly individuals such as Victor. I wish him and his family well and I wish him a long, happy and active retirement.
