Catherine Connolly: ...to 2020. Ireland meets over 90% of its energy requirements by importing fossil fuels, spending €6.5 billion per year in the process. The agreement that I cannot mention, which is known as the TTIP, is very relevant to climate change because it utterly fails to provide for climate change and is primarily being pushed by the fossil fuel industry.

Marc MacSharry: .... It is wrong, unfair and anti-competitive and we should be lobbying in a European context to have regulations put in place to underpin Article 39b so that farmers can receive fair treatment. In respect of TTIP, Mercosur and the Sustainable Energy Trade Agreement, SETA, as much as opening wider markets for other Irish products attracts us, we must be very careful.

Tommy Broughan: .... Obviously MEPs should also have to work on that relationship, but they can become very remote very easily. Negotiations around the proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, are reportedly being accelerated yet there has not really been an opportunity for a proper national discussion in the House on TTIP and other significant agreements. I hope that the UK...

Mick Barry: ...- something from which the Taoiseach disgracefully sought to exempt Ireland at the Paris conference last December. Trade agreements such as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, which, if passed, will have a major bearing on agribusiness, will likewise serve to encourage a global increase in air miles and the ludicrous situation of identical food products crossing each...

Seán Sherlock: .... I totally agree with the points made by Deputy Smith, which have now been put on the record. However, an agreement is still a long way off. On the procedure around the negotiation of TTIP, for an association agreement, it is not just about trade as we are talking about it today.
