We have to bear in mind that in a post-Brexit environment there will be Irish companies in new international markets working very hard to win business as a result of the negative effects Brexit will have. I am just curious to see why the Senator feels we need to distinguish her concerns purely in terms of foreign companies when one bears in mind that there will be other jurisdictions referring to Irish companies as foreign companies also. As we get through all of the debate that is going to ensue on what a post-Brexit Irish economy will look like, we need to use that kind of language with care.
