I welcome the ambassador to the Gallery. On behalf of the Sinn Féin group, I extend my sympathies to the Fine Gael Party on the loss of former Senator Jackman. I begin by welcoming the significant step forward in the Belfast High Court yesterday relating to the redevelopment of Casement Park, which has been wasted for far too long. It has the potential to be a transformative economic driver for west Belfast, Belfast as a whole and indeed the wider province. It is a great shame that a number of generations of Gaels have not had the opportunity to play on the pitch and enjoy the spectacle of Casement Park. I look forward to seeing workers on site and to seeing colleagues from across the rest of the country come back to Casement Park to enjoy a thrilling experience.
