Before proceeding with questions I am sure Members would wish to join me in welcoming the parliamentary delegation from the People's Republic of China to Leinster House. The delegation is led by Mr. Tian Jiyun, the vice-chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of the People's Republic of China. I bid him, his colleagues and members of his entourage a most hearty céad míle fáilte to our seat of Parliament. It is our desire that their stay here will be happy and successful and that they will take back with them happy memories of their visit to Ireland. Céad míle fáilte, a hundred thousand welcomes.
