I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former Minister for Finance, Brian Lenihan, TD.
A true parliamentarian, public representative and servant of the State, he handled his illness with courage, dignity and good humour while also carrying out his parliamentary duties at a particularly tough time in our nation’s history.
My thoughts are with his family at this very sad time.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
Ends.
