I join the Leader in welcoming the delegation, who are friends of the Leader from Ballyheane and Ballintubber in County Mayo, and from Tarbert in Kerry. I also extend a special welcome to her dad Michael and thank him for allowing us the pleasure of the Leader as a Member of the House. I thank her for the work she is doing. She was in my office earlier. It is great to have her here. We have a brother of former Senator Dan Kiely with us too. He is very welcome to the House this afternoon. I know that Senator Mark Daly has special friends in the House. With the indulgence of the House, I ask Senator Daly to welcome the friends of Congressman Richie Neal from Springfield, Massachusetts. I have great friends from Springfield in Massachusetts. Michael Carney and the Zorzis are great friends of mine in Springfield. They are very welcome to the House. I call the Leas-Chathaoirleach.
