Aontaím go huile is go hiomlán leis an bhfinné mar gheall ar infheistíocht. That is one of the areas of joint agreement between IBEC and Sinn Féin.
Dr. Regan mentioned that one of the threats is that the UK would nearly become the Switzerland of the north-west Atlantic. If that is the case, strategically, it would be logical for the UK to seek to lock the EU and itself into the closest possible regulatory equivalence and ensure that there is no deviation that will create a pull all the time. The closer the UK is to the EU, the less damage it can do in that space.
