Seán Kyne (Galway West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank all the Senators for their co-operation on this very important Bill. Once again, I commend Deputy Tony McLoughlin - lest I be corrected - for his work in spearheading this very important Bill. I also want to recognise Orla Ryan and Clare Morgan from my Department and all the Members on what is a momentous day. I am not sure when a Private Member's Bill last reached Final Stage and became law so it is important to recognise that it is a long time since a Private Members' Bill went through all Stages in the Oireachtas and I commend Deputy McLoughlin. I also recognise the great cross-party support on this very important issue of the banning of onshore fracking, and I commend all the Members.
