Address by Ms Dana Rosemary Scallon, MEP.

An Leas-Chathaoirleach:

I wish on my own behalf and on behalf of all members of Seanad Éireann to welcome Ms Dana Rosemary Scallon, Member of the European Parliament, to the Seanad today and her family which is here in the Visitors Gallery. Dana was elected as an MEP in 1999 for the constituency of Connacht-Ulster. Prior to her political career, she was a national figure, due to her success in the Eurovision Song Contest of 1970. Since then she has had a multifaceted career, and in whatever task she has undertaken she has expressed her views clearly and cogently. She has always conveyed a genuine enthusiasm and passion for the task in hand. I look forward to hearing her address in the Seanad today in accordance with Standing Order 52A.
