Before proceeding with business, I wish, on my own behalf and on behalf of the Members of the Dáil, to offer a céad míle fáilte and a most sincere welcome to a delegation from the Austrian Parliament, composed of members of the Austrian-Ireland parliamentary friendship group. Our friends are led by Mr. Christian Höbart, MP, chairman of the friendship group. Also joining them is someone well known to us, H.E. Dr. Helmut Freudenschuss, Austrian ambassador to Ireland. Thanks to Deputy Brophy, convener on the Irish side, for his assistance. We wish our guests success with their visit.
