Before I call on Senator Lombard, I welcome Maebh Doyle to the Public Gallery. Maebh is a transition year student from Bandon, County Cork, who is spending this week with Senator Lombard. I sincerely hope she is having a good week in Leinster House and that she sees how hard politicians work and how democracy operates. I also hope she will choose politics as a career because, in spite of everything, it is a great career and you can achieve so much. She is very welcome and please God we will see her back here soon.
