Rónán Mullen: Sa teaghlach, in the family; motherhood in the family. Whether people like it or not, there are many mothers who value their duties within the family.

Rónán Mullen: I welcome the witnesses and thank them for appearing before us. Like Senator Ruane, I may also have to leave before the end of this meeting to deal with the legislation in the Seanad so I offer my apologies in advance.
