Legal Services Regulation Bill 2011: Committee Stage
10:30 am
Sean Barrett (Independent) | Oireachtas source
I thank the Minister. It is the generosity of spirit which we recognise. It could be misinterpreted and it would be silly to allow that to happen. I speak on behalf of a constituency with a substantial number of people from Northern Ireland in it. I would not like to see them disbarred from anything cross-Border because I value their presence so hugely. Every Department and House of the Oireachtas should have hands across the Border. On the Order of Business, we expressed admiration and wished Mr. Robinson the best of luck on his retirement. The progress made has been admirable. People from Northern Ireland are very worthwhile people to have about and I am delighted the Minister intends to consider the matter on Report Stage.
