Charlie O’Connor tribute and visitors
The Cathaoirleach congratulated Charlie O’Connor on his public service and welcomed several visiting groups to the House.
I join with the Senator in congratulating Charlie O’Connor on a lifetime of commitment in public service. He is one of life’s gentlemen and he transcends politics at every opportunity. He is wonderful person. I join with the Senator in wishing him well.
I welcome the guests of the Leas-Chathaoirleach, Senator Mark Daly. There is a group who are guests of the Minister, Deputy Foley; the Minister of State, Deputy Richmond; and Deputies Funchion, Ó Broin and Ó Cathasaigh. It is a combination of different groups. They are all very welcome to Leinster House. I thank them for being here.
