Thank you, Minister, for coming in to answer those Commencement matters.

I would like to welcome some of our groups here. I feel like I am in the ballroom of romance; we have the ladies on one side and the gentlemen on the other. We have guests of Senator Chris Andrews, the Ringsend and Irishtown golden girls group. You are all golden girls and fabulous blondes. We do have more fun, do we not? We also have the Terenure Men's Shed. I hope you are both enjoying your trip to the Seanad today and that perhaps you will convene and have a cup of coffee together. It might really be the ballroom of romance here this morning. Thank you and enjoy the rest of your stay.
