I thank the Senator.

I thank Senator Martin Conway for raising the very poignant case of Caitríona Lucas. Everyone in the House was shocked by her death. As Senator Martin Conway rightly said, she died heroically in the line of duty while on a search and rescue mission to bring a person back to safety. As we resume our deliberations and work, it is appropriate that we pay tribute to the memory and life of Caitríona Lucas and, more importantly, that we remember her for her heroic endeavour and bravery. We commend her and in so doing remember her husband, Brendan; her son, Ben, and her daughter, Emma. To the extended families, we send our deepest sympathy. We also think of her colleagues in the Doolin Irish Coast Guard unit. To all the men and women who work in the Irish Coast Guard, we express our thanks and gratitude. We have seen the television reports, the pictures and the imagery. It is easy to watch television in the luxury of one's front room but putting ourselves in their lives and their way is another matter. I call on Members to stand and in so doing call on them to remember the life of Shimon Peres, whom Senator David Norris mentioned and a man who brought and worked for peace. It is important that we stand at the beginning to pause for a minute's silence to commemorate, remember and say "Thank you" for the life of Caitríona Lucas.

I suggest we do that at the end of the Order of Business.

That is okay and I will be happy to do so.
