Mayo Day and coastal projects

Summary

Senator Chambers promoted Mayo Day and then highlighted Brexit adjustment funding for seven Mayo projects, stressing the importance of marine communities and local economic support.

I support the Order of Business as outlined by the Leader. I will raise a number of issues. I alert everybody in the House that Saturday, 30 April is the annual Mayo Day celebration. I invite my colleagues to attend if they would like to visit Mayo. It is a festival we started a number of years ago and we were the first county in the country to do so. That is not a surprise because we like to shout about our Mayoness. This year's theme is home to where the heart is and home to Mayo. It is about getting people back to the county and getting all our diaspora back to visit. There are many events on for the day, including in the fields of music, culture, art and food. There will be a lot happening across the county.

People can link in online as well. I look forward to welcoming anybody who would like to visit; I ask them to give me a shout.
