It is proposed that COM (2012) 335 requires no further scrutiny. It is a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament of the Council establishing a framework for managing financial responsibility linked to investor-state dispute settlement tribunals established by international agreements to which the European Union is party. The lead Department is the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation and has indicated that it welcomes the proposal as part of the overall EU international investment policy, which will assist in making the EU, and therefore Ireland, a more attractive investment location for foreign direct investment. It is proposed that this proposal does not warrant further scrutiny. Is that agreed?
