Mattie McGrath: Tá áthas an domhain orm bheith anseo anocht. Tá dhá Airí Stáit as Tiobraid Árann anseo anocht freisin.

Mattie McGrath: I welcome the home improvement retrofit scheme, which I have sought for the past four or five years in submissions. I welcome and salute it. I also welcome the retention of the 9% VAT rate for the hospitality trade. It has been a success and it would have been nonsense to change it.
