Madam Speaker, I thank my colleagues.
I am going to close with words from another one of Kirsty's scientist colleagues, Dr. Ian Burton, who said:
It has been an honour to work in association with Kirsty Duncan through the University of Toronto and IPCC.... With her work and training in Medical Geography she made outstanding contributions to the award of the Nobel Prize to the IPCC.
Her premature demise is an irreplaceable loss to the ongoing struggle against...ignorance.
I will close with these words in Gaelic. I do not know how to speak Gaelic in the past tense, so I can say it only in the present tense: Kirsty, tha gaol agam ort. I love you.
