Death of Private Seán Rooney: Expressions of Sympathy
Dail Éireann — 2022-12-15
============================================================

Paul Murphy (PBP), Dublin South-West

On behalf of People Before Profit, I express our deepest condolences to the family, friends, community and comrades of Private Seán Rooney. They received the most horrific, shocking news about the death of their friend, family member or colleague. The whole country shares in their sorrow, stands with them and expresses solidarity with them at this difficult time, with the loss they are experiencing. Our thoughts are also with the soldiers who were injured, particularly Private Shane Kearney, who I understand is still in hospital. The whole country wishes for him to make a full recovery. Our solidarity to their families and to the men themselves.
