I congratulate the Secretary General and his team on the work done in the six months of the Presidency and in the lead up to it. I am fascinated by the report itself. It is the sort of report that should be presented before an EU committee rather than an Irish committee. I was elected by Irish people and I would prefer to have seen much more about what the Department is doing in this country to follow the policies laid down by the Government and to have got a report on those policies, rather than the overall EU report we have got.
