Before moving on to the next Topical Issue matter, I wish on my own behalf, and on behalf of the Members of Dáil Éireann, to offer a céad míle fáilte to the delegation from Australia, which I had the honour of meeting last night when it arrived at Dublin Airport. The Honourable Mr. Scott Ryan, President of the Australian Senate, is accompanied by Members of both Houses. The Australian ambassador, H.E. Richard Andrews, and his officials from the Australian Embassy in Dublin, who we know, are also present. The delegation is very welcome to Dáil Éireann, and I hope its visit will be useful and to our mutual benefit. Fáilte romhaibh.
