Election of Cathaoirleach
Seanad Éireann — 2020-06-29
============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

I thank the Senator. His championing of workers' rights, like all colleagues, is well known. His mention of former colleagues who are not in the Chamber with us today is appropriate on a day like this. He also mentioned voting rights, which is in the programme for Government. The most fundamental right of a citizen of any republic should be the right to vote regardless of where one is. I hope we will see progress on that issue under the programme for Government.
