Mr. Paul O'Brien:

I ask that Ms McEvoy answer one of the questions from Deputy Nolan. With regard to Deputy Harkin's question, as we understand it, the fact that Sweden has now written back to the Commission to reject the proposal will slow things down to a certain extent. However, all of the timelines have been spoken about and we believe the Commission is looking to have this finished by the end of 2023 when each member state is to go back with a two-year lead-in period for how it will enact this.
