Report of the Joint Committee on Autism: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2024-03-07
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (CC), Kildare North

I compliment all involved on a very interesting and sensitive debate, which was needed. I also compliment them on the manner in which it was dealt with. I recognise the efforts made by all of the people involved to identify and empathise with the families and the sufferers themselves.
Incidentally, somebody made reference to the Upper House and the Lower House. This is the Upper House. We are not in the United States, where the other House is the Upper House.
