Let me move on because time is tight. What scope does the Taoiseach see for bilateral engagement with the United Kingdom? On the broader issues that fall under the heading of EU competence, the negotiations will take place at EU level between the remaining 27 member states and the United Kingdom. What scope is there for Ireland and the United Kingdom to engage in bilateral negotiations? Are there issues on which the Taoiseach believes we can reach agreement with the United Kingdom on a bilateral basis?
