I welcome to the Bulgarian ambassador, and I wish Bulgaria well on its national day. I also welcome the British ambassador and his team. It is great to have them here as always, particularly in light of what we is happening this week. It is particularly good to have him with us.

I commend and congratulate Senator Keogan on organising the coffee morning in aid of the UNICEF appeal relating to the earthquake in Syria and Turkey. It is very important, and it was lovely to be there to participate. I am sure substantial funds were raised to help those who are very much in need. It was a lovely event and was very well attended. It was great to have some members of our diplomatic corps there also to support it. There were many lovely prizes and lovely local food from Syria and Turkey which was lovely to sample. Well done Senator Keogan.
