Before proceeding with the Order of Business this morning I feel that Members would wish very much to join with me in extending a most warm and cordial welcome to the members of the Australian parliamentary delegation, the first Australian parliamentary delegation to visit Ireland, who are happily with us this morning, led by the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Leo Boyse McLeay. On behalf of Members of this House I offer them our warmest congratulations on the great occasion of their bicentenary and trust they will have a very pleasant and fruitful stay with us. Céad míle fáilte, a hundred thousand welcomes.
