I join the Taoiseach in offering on my own behalf and that of my party our deepest sympathy to the families and friends of all those killed and injured in Berkeley, California.

Our hearts and minds go out to the families, particularly the parents. Their young children have had their lives taken from them in their prime and in the beauty of an American summer as they looked forward to spending a great number of months there, as so many Irish have done before them. It is very sad news that has broken today. All Members in the House are united in conveying our deepest sympathies to all who have been bereaved.
