Before I call the next speaker, I am sure Members will wish to join me in welcoming Ms Miet Smet, President of the Association of European Parliamentarians with Africa, AWEPA. She is also a former Belgian Minister, Senator and MEP.

On my behalf and on behalf of my colleagues in Seanad Éireann, I extend a warm welcome to you as well as our good wishes for a successful visit to Ireland. I acknowledge that you are accompanied by the former Senator Katharine Bulbulia and the former MEP Mary Banotti. You are all welcome to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery.
