This may be the ambassador's last visit to the Chamber as he is due to go back home again having served his time here in that role. I thank him for all his friendship, work, collegiality and support to us as a Parliament but also to our country in difficult times. I thank him very much for all his work.

Before I ask the Acting Leader to call the Order of Business, I welcome the Dutch ambassador this afternoon as we celebrate Dutch national day. I welcome Ambassador Palm and his deputy, defence attaché Lieutenant Colonel Piso, to the House. Of course, we are celebrating the Netherlands' King's Day, their national holiday and birthday of His Majesty King Willem-Alexander. I thank them for being here this morning. We look forward to the celebration. This may be the ambassador's last visit to the Chamber as he is due to go back home again having served his time here in that role. I thank him for all his friendship, work, collegiality and support to us as a Parliament but also to our country in difficult times. I thank him very much for all his work. Go raibh míle maith agat.
