Before proceeding with business, on my own behalf and on behalf of the Members of Dáil Éireann I wish to offer a céad míle fáilte, a most sincere welcome, to a delegation from the Committee for Ethnic and Religious Affairs of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference led by His Excellency, Mr. Thien. I express the hope that the delegates will find their visit enjoyable, successful and to our mutual benefit.
