Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

European Committee of the Regions: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Adam Banaszak:

I am from the ECR group which has a lot of British members. Most of them voted to remain in the European Union but the situation is as it is. It has already happened and people have decided. Now, it is not a question of what they feel but of what they would like to do. They would like to do their best. Both political sides are trying to do as much as they can in the circumstances to find the best solutions. It is not a question of how they voted before, it is a question of what to do now to find the best solution for both sides. I hope that is obvious to everyone. They are trying to co-operate as much as possible with the regions in the European Union. We try to maintain our connections. I have a question on what we know about the common project between counties in Northern Ireland and counties in the Republic and about Interreg projects on the island. What is planned in that regard? That is my question to the committee.
