Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

On behalf of the House, I thank the Minister for the attention he has paid to the House in its discussion of this Bill. We have had three debates on Second Stage and five on Committee Stage. I acknowledge not only the highly intellectual content of the debate but also the gusto with which the Minister approached it. I thank the officials, who were always here on time and who were very attentive. The Minister has done the Seanad proud and it is proud of him.
