============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

I thank Senator Bacik for acknowledging the work of the professors and researchers of the Trinity Centre for Deaf Studies, such as Professor Lorraine Lesson and Dr. John Bosco Conama, and others who have passed on, who have excelled in this area and who have championed this cause long and hard over four decades. I call on the Minister of State to respond.
