Mental Health Bill 2024: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2025-12-10
============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

Before I call Senator Ruane, I want to welcome Virginia McGregor and her husband, Bob, from Scranton, Pennsylvania. They are here on a trip from the US. I am delighted they are able to be here. The Distinguished Daughters of Pennsylvania are among the many Irish American organisations involved in the ad hoc committee for the protection of the Good Friday Agreement. I thank her for doing all she does on the America 250 Commission. She is also the treasurer of the Democratic National Committee. Virginia and Bob are most welcome. I thank them for being here today. I know they met the Government Chief Whip earlier. They can discus war stories about politics in general.
