On behalf of the joint committee, I welcome the Minister of State with responsibility for European Affairs, Deputy Dara Murphy, to the meeting to update the committee on the EU-UK reform negotiations. Prior to Christmas, the committee heard the views of Professor Faull on the current state of play. We are keen to hear the Minister of State's views on the situation.
The Minister of State will be aware that this subject is of particular interest to the joint committee and that it prepared and published a report in May or June of last year on the impact of a Brexit on Ireland. We are interested in hearing how the Minister of State sees the negotiations developing.
