I congratulate the Cathaoirleach on his appointment; this will be a day of immense pride for him, his family and his supporters. We in the Fine Gael group look forward to working effectively with the Cathaoirleach in the years to come. We hope this will be a successful Seanad and that we carry out a significant amount of work. I have no doubt that the Cathaoirleach will deal with the business of the House in a fair and efficient manner.

I also welcome the families and friends of all Senators who are in the House today. We are all aware of the background support we receive for our work and our election to this House is a reflection on the work of our families, friends and supporters. I especially welcome those who have been able to attend today.
