Billy Kelleher (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)

I thank the staff of the Seanad and the Senators for their co-operation in taking the Bill at short notice. While it involved dealing with technical amendments I appreciate their co-operation. The Bill does not change policy but it is important because it allows the enactment of policy. I thank the Seanad staff, Members and the officials in the Department who worked diligently night after night on the Bill.
