I thank the Tánaiste and his officials. As Senator Richmond rightly stated, we should commend the diplomats who have worked across Europe and the world. On days like today we should remember our iar-Thaoiseach, Deputy Enda Kenny, who began this journey as well. We have a bit to go before the departure of the UK from European Union but it is important we stand together as a Parliament and we have done that. I thank all the Members for their co-operation.
