Address to Seanad Éireann by Members of the European Parliament
Seanad Éireann — 2026-05-27
============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

Before I call on the Acting Leader, I thank all our MEPs for their contribution and outlining the work they do. As this is broadcast on Oireachtas TV over the coming weeks I hope that the MEPs, having outlined all the committees they are working on, much of which is unknown and unacknowledged. I want to acknowledge it here today. We thank the MEPs for all the work they do on behalf of Ireland at all those committee meetings. There is not a lot of glory and medals won sitting in committee meetings for hours on end for projects that can take years to get across the line, and the small victories that nobody at home will hear about that they are achieving on our behalf. I thank them for that. I will ask the Acting Leader and the Leas-Chathaoirleach to make a few closing remarks.
