Public Transport: Motion Seanad Éireann — 2025-02-26 ============================================================ Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal East I thank the proposer of the motion, Senator O'Loughlin, the seconder, Senator Clifford-Lee, and the other Fianna Fáil Senators for tabling this important motion. I thank the Cathaoirleach for his kind words of welcome. I congratulate the new Senators who have been elected to the Upper House and the existing Senators who have been returned. I assure the Seanad that in my attendance during the previous Oireachtas I valued this House. I value the Seanad and Senators' input both for legislation and motions such as this. They can be assured that whenever I can be available to attend here, I will be. I congratulate Senator O'Loughlin on her appointment as Leader of the House and the Cathaoirleach on his second term. I will not use any US comparisons on second terms. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas. Licensed under CC BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).
