Go raibh maith agat, Senator. Of course, he was a wonderful Whip in that Government at the time.

As we have reached the end of this segment of the proceedings, I welcome to the Gallery a school group. They are very welcome on this historic day and I thank them for being here. I neglected to say earlier that we should remember our good friend, the former Senator Paul Coghlan, who is at home. We wish him well. I also thank Deirdre Chambers from the Whip’s office, who is sitting in the Gallery, for all her work.

I call the Leader.
