Just to be clear, it is still the case that one cannot trade in services with Crimea. That is still banned. This is not something from 2014. IBEC members should be applying that ban in the trade of services right now, last year, next year, during Covid. There was a suggestion that remote working was somehow a brand new thing but this is not brand new. IBEC members should currently be applying a ban on trade in services. I ask Mr. O'Brien to clarify if that is the case.
