John Carty (Fianna Fail)

I welcome the Minister to the House and I congratulate him on becoming Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food at this important time in our position in Europe, as far as agriculture is concerned. On a lighter note, I hope that this will not interfere with the Minister's attendance at those matches on Sundays in which Cavan will contend. I am sure Senator O'Reilly will concur with me on that.
