Speaking at the event, Ambassador Mulhall said: "The Berkeley balcony collapse of June 2015 was a terrible tragedy and one which had an enormous effect on Ireland.
"The depth of grief, shock and sorrow was immense - six young lives so tragically and prematurely ended and serious injury inflicted on so many.
"I would like to pay tribute to the first responders, medical staff and our wonderful Irish community who provided such fulsome support for everyone affected, especially the young people and the families directly involved".
