My last interruption was not an interruption. It was simply to agree with everything Senator Conway said, rather than repeat it, in deference to the people who have been sitting in the Gallery for hours. I congratulate the Minister of State for a job well done. It has taken the Minister of State several hours and I thank her for the work she has put into this Bill, not only the hours she has sat in the House but all the time over the years since she was elevated to her position.
I thank the organisations we have met through the process. As Senator O'Donnell has said, they have educated us and I am grateful to them. In particular, I thank Ms Fiona Walsh from Tallaght trilogue group, Mary Farrell and the representatives from Inclusion Ireland. It is a job well done. It has been long-awaited. I thank the Minister of State. It was not an interruption; it was a job well done.
