Alan Farrell (Dublin Fingal, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Minister and her officials. Regardless of which path the UK takes, it is the citizens of this State to whom this committee and the Department are answerable. They will feel the effects for many years to come and it is important to say that. I also re-state something the Minister said a few moments ago which is critical and supported by all Members of the Dáil and Seanad. It speaks to the direction this State has taken the negotiations and its approach to Brexit and it should speak volumes when the children of today look back on what the Government and the Oireachtas were doing when Brexit occurred. We have found strength in one another in the context of our approach to the problem which has presented itself but which is not of our making. The Minister correctly pointed out that our strength is in our membership of the European Union and the fact that we are going to deal with this collectively.

Does the Minister wish to make any concluding remarks?
