Before I call the Minister of State, cuirim céad míle fáilte roimh na daltaí as Scoil Fhursa, cathair na Gaillimhe. Tá céad míle fáilte roimh gach duine. I hope they have a very pleasant day in Leinster House and to celebrate their visit, I hope they will get homework off tonight and tomorrow night. They have no homework tonight and the teachers need a break from the ceartúcháin.

I thank Senator Boyhan for informing us that this is the first visit of the Minister of State, Deputy Higgins, to the Seanad for Commencement Matters.
