Senator Higgins, resume your seat. Please be fair to all Members. The points you make are diluted by your going over time. Please understand this.

Before I call on the next speaker, I welcome Ms Maggie Maloney and the Duhill community group from County Tipperary. They are very welcome to Leinster House. I am glad to say their county is not the home of hurling but they are very welcome. I hope they have a pleasant and enjoyable day in Leinster House. Their timing is opportune because their native county man, Senator Ahearn, is the next speaker. He is doing our guests proud in Leinster House.

The result is different from that appearing on Senators' screens as Senator Flynn inadvertently omitted to vote. We will rectify that.

I welcome Peter Duffy and Charlotte Grenson to the Public Gallery. Charlotte is from France and Peter is from Cork. Peter is the brother of Denise Duffy, a very good friend of ours in the parliamentary community who works with the Minister of State, Deputy Hildegarde Naughton. The good news for all of us is that Peter is a very proud Cork person and Charlotte is from France. Via Vancouver, they are moving back to Cork. A Corkman coming home is always good news. Peter and Charlotte are very welcome to Leinster House…
