Planning and Development Bill 2023: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-06-27
============================================================

Eugene Murphy (CC), Agricultural Panel

I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Dillon. I also extend a very special welcome to some guests in the Gallery. We always love to see the public coming in to see how Seanad Éireann works. It is a very important part of our democracy. I particularly welcome Liam Coyle, an old school pal of mine who had to put up with me terrorising him during our school days. There are also friends of Senator Maria Byrne in the Gallery, namely, Pauline Kennedy and Lee Ann Purcell from Limerick. They are all very welcome. Céad míle fáilte and have a lovely day.
