Before I call Senator Manning to move Item No. 1 I would like to take formality out of this motion by saying that it is the first step being taken to replace our late distinguished colleague, Senator Jack Daly.
Vacancy in Seanad Membership: Motion.
I move:
That the Clerk of Seanad Éireann do send to the Minister for the Environment notice of a vacancy in the membership of Seanad Éireann occasioned by the death of Senator Jack Daly, a member elected from the Nominating Bodies Sub-Panel of the Industrial and Commercial Panel at the General Election for Seanad Éireann, April 1987.
Question put and agreed to.
