As members know the previous Vice Chairman, Deputy Dara Murphy, was appointed as Minister of State with responsibility for European Union affairs. I ask for nominations for the position of Vice Chairman.
Election of Vice Chairman
I nominate Deputy Seán Kyne.
I second the nomination.
Are there any other nominations? As there are no other nominations, I declare Deputy Kyne elected as Vice Chairman of the committee. I am glad to be the first to congratulate him and I look forward to working with him in the future.
