Paschal Mooney (Fianna Fail)

I am pleased our colleague, Senator O'Toole, drew attention to the fact that the House was not returning; its Members have been here. He was absolutely correct, although I take the point that it is a new plenary session. I welcome back Jody Blake. Colleagues will be delighted to see the reappearance of our valued colleague, Senator Kate Walsh, in her rightful place after a long illness.
