Seanad Éireann — 2023-05-18
============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

Before I call on Senator Fitzpatrick, I welcome to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery Mr. Kevin Conlon, his wife Claudia who is a former judge, and their children Cody and Carson. They are most welcome to Seanad Éireann today and I thank them for being with us. They are great friends of Carl Hughes.
I also welcome another great friend of the House, the Minister of State, Deputy Butler. She is very welcome to Seanad Éireann this morning and it was a pleasure to meet her in Kenmare over the weekend. I thank her for saying "hello" to my father, who is one of the people she looks after in her role as the person in charge of older people, although he might disagree that he is an older person at slightly over the age of eight decades or thereabouts.
