Before proceedings to Private Notice Questions I take the opportunity to welcome to Dáil Éireann members of the committee for budget and planning and public accounts of the Islamic Consultative Assembly of Iran led by the Deputy Chairman of the committee, Dr. Rosool Seddighi MP, who are in the distinguished visitors' gallery.
On my own behalf and on behalf of Members I extend to you Mr. Deputy Chairman and your delegation, a most sincere welcome to our country. I express the hope that you will find your visit to Ireland to be interesting, successful and to our mutual benefit.
