I wish to be associated with the expressions of sympathy in relation to the death of the former Senator and Member of the European Parliament, Flor O'Mahony. His public service speaks for itself, as does his work behind the scenes and in promoting the ideals of the European Union. That is something we should honour and pay tribute to on the 50th anniversary. I also pay tribute to our colleague Damien, who worked in the parliamentary community. I spoke with him at the Association of Irish Local Government conference in Sligo on that Wednesday, when we discussed boundaries, commissions and the future. Unfortunately, we lost him too soon. I would like to be associated with those remarks.
