I thank all Members for their contributions. It should be noted that Seanad Éireann has an important EU dimension. I congratulate our delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe led by Senator O'Loughlin and previously led by Senator Joe O'Reilly, who has served as vice president. I thank Senators Gavan and Garvey for their participation. I also congratulate Senator Conway on his appointment as the new Chairperson of the EU scrutiny committee Senator Higgins referred to.
