I thank the Chairman and will take on board what he has said. Any proposal I put before this committee, Government or the Oireachtas in respect of migration is exclusively motivated by what is in the best interest of Ireland.
Second, regarding Article 3 or Article 4 debate, I am interested to hear what the committee thinks for future agreements, that is, whether it thinks the Article 3 route is preferable to the Article 4 route. If members have strong views on that, I will certainly take it into account.
I hear what was said about the hour debate in the Oireachtas and I will pass that on to the Whip’s office.
