Seanad debates

Wednesday, 26 March 2003

I join the Leader of the Opposition in congratulating Ms Emily O'Reilly on her appointment as Ombudsman and Information Commissioner. It is pertinent that we were debating the Freedom of Information Bill last week. I am sure that she will show the same vigorous independence as the Minister who has appointed her. I also offer my best wishes to the retiring commissioner, Mr. Kevin Murphy, and thank him for his long career of public service. It should be remembered that he played a very important role in the early partnership agreements.
