I thank the Minister for her attendance. She wishes to invite all Members of the committee to attend the citizenship ceremony that will take place at the convention centre on Friday, 4 July at 2 p.m. I ask Members to let the clerk to the committee know whether they can attend. I know Senator Bacik is not available to attend.
Business of Joint Committee
Unfortunately I cannot attend due to the Labour Party's leadership election taking place but thank the Minister for her wonderful invitation.
I would love, as I am sure other members would, to attend future ceremonies even if some of us cannot be present this Friday.
I also offer my apologies. I thank the Minister for her kind invitation. Perhaps she might consider giving us future opportunities, but I cannot make it this time.
Of course.
I appreciate the invitation.
I have heard great things about the ceremonies from those who have gone through them and obtained citizenship.
They really are amazing.
The joint committee adjourned at 1.10 p.m. until 9.30 a.m. on Wednesday, 9 July 2014.
