Order of Business
The Chair congratulates the Leader on her engagement, members exchange brief pleasantries, and the Leader sets out the scheduled business for the day.
Before the Leader announces the Order of Business, I wish to congratulate her and her fiancé, Jarlath Munnelly, who have announced their engagement. We wish them many happy years of marriage, happiness and love together.
