Budget 2026 (Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation): Statements
Seanad Éireann — 2025-10-08
============================================================

Maria Byrne (CC), Agricultural Panel

Before I call the Minister of State, I welcome to the Public Gallery: Marcos Perez Espinilla and Lourdes Fernandez Velasco, who are the guests of Alan Guidon; and Giacomo Amari and Noemi Quarenghi, who are the guests of Senator Martin Conway. They are all very welcome. I hope I got the pronunciation right. I hope they enjoy their visit to Leinster House. I call the Minister of State, Deputy Higgins.
