I second Senator Gerard Craughwell's amendment to the Order of Business. I also take the opportunity to thank Members. We just had a sort of corrosive conversation a moment ago but I meet Senators and hear lovely compliments about the launch of Solace House in New York for the Irish diaspora, for which I thank them most sincerely. It was a pilot project until last week but is now a permanent service for members of the Irish diaspora who are in suicidal crisis. I thank the Members for their good wishes and will keep the House updated on the service.
