Paschal Mooney (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

On behalf of the Fianna Fáil group in the House, I endorse the comments of the Leader in wishing Andy Fitzgerald and his family every happiness on his retirement. None of us likes change and whenever there are occasions such as this, they probably make us all aware of the transient nature of our own careers in here in that nothing lasts forever. It seems like yesterday when Andy was appointed an usher. On behalf of the Fianna Fáil group, I thank him for his kindness, courtesy and assistance to us all over the period of his long and distinguished service. I wish him well in his retirement and wish him good health and happiness.
