I thank Paddy O'Hanlon and the members of his task force, many of whom I know. The number of people throughout the world who made contact with the task force is outstanding. The task force visited the United Kingdom, Australia and the US and held hundreds of meetings with bodies that represent the Irish abroad and received countless representations from the public. It is good that there is interest in this issue, including at home, in regard to how Irish emigrants are being treated by us and the plan of campaign that will be implemented in the coming years to ensure their contribution to our society is recognised.
