Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

In recognition of the long service Deputy Neville, like many others, has given to the Houses of the Oireachtas, it should be said that it was a service characterised by participation, perseverance and a spirit and goodwill to pursue his objectives in a way that was not offensive to anybody but was inclusive of all. The Deputy can be rightly proud.
