"A Uachtaráin, bhí sé feiliúnach gur phléamar an t-ábhar tábhachtach seo ar maidin agus gur ghlacamar beagnach d’aon ghuth leis na moltaí a bhí romhainn ó chianaibh.
Madam President, there is a well-known proverb which says ‘give me a fish and you will feed me for a day, teach me to fish and you will feed me for life’. In the spirit of that proverb, I think one area where we can make a huge difference is in the area of irrigation. I did some voluntary work in Africa, and I saw how even the most rudimentary irrigation systems could turn barren and infertile land into rich productive soil, whereas adjacent lands that did not have any irrigation remained barren. I think that, in the spirit of that, we should home in on the opportunities that irrigation provides for alleviating famine into the future."@en1
