Noel Treacy (Galway East, Fianna Fail)

I thank the Chair, the House, the staff and all the Senators who have contributed to the debate on this Bill. I was pleased to come here on behalf of the Minister for Finance to assist in ensuring its passage. I am confident that, as the year ends, this legislation will enable the Government to proceed with the various public projects that are critically important to the future infrastructure of our country. As we start the new year, I am confident that the new structure we have created will be of major benefit to the people. I wish everybody a happy, holy Christmas and a much better new year.
