I thank the Tánaiste, Deputy Coveney, and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for their help over the last three weeks. A young man, Ross Hanlon from Athboy in my constituency, lost his life in a tragic accident in Vienna. On behalf of his father and family, I thank the ambassador in Vienna, Tom Hanney, as well as Seán Ó Riain and all staff of the embassy, and the Irish community in Vienna, who came out to help the family. It is great to hear the wonderful work that embassies do for Irish people in difficult times. I also thank the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust for its wonderful work. Ross came home to Athboy last Wednesday and was laid to rest on Friday. My sincere condolences to his family, friends and loved ones. May he rest in peace.
