Visitors and Mayo GAA banter
The Chair welcomed visitors from Mayo, and Members exchanged light-hearted remarks about Mayo and Dublin GAA. This was purely procedural and conversational.
I welcome Deputy Violet-Anne Wynne to the Public Gallery with her guests. I also welcome the students from Claremorris in County Mayo. There must be a big exodus from Mayo to Leinster House today because this is the second school from Mayo to visit us. President Biden said, “Mayo for Sam” but I will say, “No homework tonight and tomorrow night.” I thank the teachers for all their work and hope they enjoy their visit to our Oireachtas. The other school was going to Croke Park. The students here tell me they are going there too. It might be their only visit to Croke Park this year but I do not think so. Senators Burke and Chambers might have other ideas.

Even Dublin would be happy to concede for Mayo to get Sam this year.
