Eugene Murphy (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I thank Senator Fitzpatrick and we all echo her sentiments. It is a challenge for Ireland but most of us understand that those people are fleeing a terrible war and a brutal man. As much of a strain as it is, we have to try to hold our hands out to them and to support them in every way we can.

I am glad to now extend a céad míle fáilte to representatives of the Vevay active retirement group from Bray, County Wicklow. They are here with Deputy Matthews, who is sitting nice and quiet in the background. There are two visitors belonging to Senator Norris here as well. They are all very welcome to Seanad Éireann and we hope they are enjoying their visit to the House today. I am sure the Oireachtas people are looking after them. Those ushers are fantastic people for looking after our guests. Have a nice time.

As there are no other speakers offering, I will return to the Minister of State for his final conclusion. He has six minutes.
