I move:

That the Clerk of Seanad Éireann do send to the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage notice of a vacancy in the membership of Seanad Éireann occasioned by the resignation of Senator Niall Ó Donnghaile, a member elected from the Oireachtas Sub-Panel of the Administrative Panel at the General Election for Seanad Éireann, April, 2020.

I thank our former colleague and friend, Niall Ó Donnghaile, for his contribution to Seanad Éireann. He was a good colleague and a good friend here in Leinster House and we wish him well in the next chapter of his life.
