Seán Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, Ceann Comhairle)

Thank you. Before I bring the Order of Business to a conclusion, I would like to thank those who have offered good wishes to myself and to other Members of the House. I want to join them in thanking the staff, the ushers and the press for their co-operation during the year. I would like to wish all my colleagues every happiness for them and their families. I look forward to working with them in the new year.

I join Deputies in remembering our colleagues from this Dáil and previous Dáileanna who died during the year. We should remember their widows, in particular.
