Paul Bradford (Fine Gael)

I join in the words of congratulations, thanks and best wishes to all of my colleagues, the Cathaoirleach, the Leader, all of the party leaders and all of the staff who contribute so much to the running of our House of the Oireachtas. Senator O'Donovan mentioned the Titanic and 2012 will see our House more like an aircraft carrier with nuclear capacity, and those who might have certain plans for us could find such a ship can be a dangerous weapon.
