The Commissioner is welcome. I am unsure whether it is coincidental or whether the Commissioner is aware of it, but we held a debate in the Dáil one or two hours ago which resulted in the ratification of two economic partnership agreements. One was an agreement with the CARIFORUM states and the other was with west African states. This leads me to a question on point 6 in the document, which argues for a reasonable and balanced free trade agreement with the United States.
