Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I welcome Deputy Gabrielle McFadden as an elected Member for Longford-Westmeath. She replaces her late sister Nicky. This must be a day of nostalgia and emotion for Gabrielle but also one of great excitement in receiving the continued trust of the people of Longford-Westmeath in fulfilling her mandate. I wish her very many years of quality representation which I know she will give to all of the people of Longford-Westmeath without fear or favour. I can testify that she is a person of exceptional qualities who will do a wonderful job in the representation of all the people of her constituency.
