Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals
Ms Sorcha Tunney:
Moreover, there is significant public support for this and perhaps that is not being heard. There has been a lot of polling throughout Europe on this and there is public support across the Continent. The European Parliament proposal is one of the proposals that have had the highest engagement from citizens of the European Union. I do not understand the lack of progress or failure to take the lead on this, but there is still time. It is not all lost and we can move it from there.
