I thank the ambassador for a detailed presentation. The work she has been doing in a short time in Dublin will stand as to what we can expect from her in the next three to four years of her time as an ambassador.

There is so much to cover and we have spoken at length in another forum on the challenges of climate change. One area I would like to pick up on with the ambassador is the scheduling for discussions and negotiations on the multiannual financial framework and how the ambassador or the Finnish Presidency feels that it can move this along? How will it deal with the ongoing parallel challenge of how Brexit will feed into EU decisions for the next seven years, which will be very impactful thereafter?
