We are moving to hear expressions of sympathy on the death of a colleague, Mr. Pádraig Faulkner, who served as Ceann Comhairle and as Minister while giving 30 years service to the House. I am delighted to welcome to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery his daughter, Mary, his sons Pat, Tom and Bartle, and son-in-law Frank. They are very welcome. I call on the Taoiseach to propose the arrangements for the expressions of sympathy.
Business of Dáil
Expressions of sympathy on the death of former Deputy Pádraig Faulkner shall be taken now and the Order of Business proposals shall be taken on the completion of the expressions of sympathy.
