I had a Commencement matter this morning on Storm Amy. I failed to acknowledge and recognise the staff of the local authority who worked all weekend across Roscommon and the west cleaning up the mess, along with the staff from the ESB and the forestry management services. I want to congratulate them now and thank them for doing this work in difficult times.

I also want to congratulate the 72,833 people who are receiving their junior certificate results this morning. They will be visiting school to get their results and later they will be able to get them online. I want to congratulate them and wish them every success in the future.
