I understand. Apart from the substantive issue about which we are speaking, my comment relates to the status of the Charter of Fundamental Rights in respect of our law making.

I noted that the Minister's presentation contained references to the continuing positive influence of Ireland's Presidency in the EU. That is good to hear. Does the Minister wish to make any further comment? She pointed that out that this still has an abiding influence due to the impact and what sounds like the effectiveness of our Presidency.
