Congratulations to Bobby Aylward and the Fianna Fáil Party on winning the by-election in Carlow-Kilkenny. The Aylwards have been long-standing and outstanding representatives of the people of Carlow-Kilkenny. Bobby makes a return to this House to continue that tradition. Credit is due to all of the candidates in the by-election who put their names on the ballot paper, canvassed in the constituency and asked for support. I was particularly pleased with the showing of our own candidate, David Fitzgerald, throughout the constituency. Deputy Aylward is welcome back to Dáil Éireann. In his own way, he will continue the long line of representation from his family and will articulate the concerns, anxieties and issues of his constituents in his own inimitable fashion. He should not take too much advice from the Deputy beside him because he will be away on holidays all of the time----
