Ms Marie Armstrong:
Tourism Ireland does a good job, including the idea of lighting up buildings in green. We get a big bounce from St. Patrick's Day. Irrespective of whether we agree with the views of President Trump, we certainly believe that the US is a very important trading partner and it is vital that we continue to go on trade missions. However, we need to look east.
We need to look at France and Germany and build relations with them. We do not have the same disapora in those countries but nonetheless we have some people.
