Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael)

I thank all of the staff of the House, particularly Deirdre Lane, Jody Blake and the ushers who are so kind to us all. I thank all of the Senators for their help and assistance. The 24th Seanad has been in operation for almost 14 months and I believe we are doing excellent work despite what others may think. I wish everyone a deserved rest and I hope we will come back suitably refreshed for the new term.
