Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy raised it. On that issue the Commission has challenged us. That decision cannot be compared to reflagging and so forth. The Taoiseach informally raised with other EU leaders the issues pertaining to the Irish Ferries experience. I have not received a formal report from the Taoiseach about the EU-Mediterranean Summit. This issue was not formally on the agenda but he has had informal discussions with other European leaders about how we might move on it.
