Seanad Éireann regularly welcomes some of Ireland's Members of the European Parliament, MEPs, to speak in the Chamber and debate with Senators.
Standing Orders allow for this type of engagement and the Cathaoirleach, Senator Mark Daly, believes this type of discussion with Ireland's representatives in Europe is a crucial part of the work of the Seanad.
