The Ceann Comhairle, Seán Ó Fearghaíl TD, switched on the Christmas tree lights on Leinster Lawn yesterday.
The Cathaoirleach of Seanad Éireann, Senator Denis O’Donovan also attended the ceremony. Members and staff gathered around the tree to hear carols by the Oireachtas Choir and the Cavan Rugby Club Choir. The Cavan Rugby Club Choir is one of the only all male rugby choirs in Ireland.
