I thank the Minister of State for that comprehensive response. Before I call Senator Boyhan, it is my great pleasure to welcome back one of our distinguished alumni, Deputy Neale Richmond, to the Visitors Gallery. Deputy Richmond now speaks for Fine Gael in Dáil Éireann and is distinguishing himself in that role. He is accompanied by an important segment of the future of this country, in the form of representatives of the Young Fine Gael branch from University College Dublin, UCD. It is good to have them here in the Houses of democracy seeing what we do. Hopefully, they will be somewhat impressed by us. I am also delighted that my son, Eoghan, is among them in the front row. They are all, though, individually and collectively welcome. Former Senator and now Deputy Neale Richmond, is particularly welcome to the Gallery. I call Senator Boyhan.
