Seán Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, Fine Gael)

An Oireachtas sub-committee is working to ascertain how to deal with the failure to have the Lisbon treaty passed. It appears that nothing has been done to improve our communications with the public regarding what is happening in Europe. Two documents relating to proposals for Council regulations regarding fishing have been laid before the Dáil. In addition, there is a proposal for a Council regulation amending a regulation on the financing of the Common Agricultural Policy. These are EU proposals that are never debated on the floor of this House.
