Liz McManus (Wicklow, Labour)

We live in a world where the issue of energy security is becoming more critical. I do not know whether the Taoiseach is aware that the European Commission has found Ireland is not compliant with the directive relating to energy security. We are compliant in the sense that we allow for 90 days of oil stocks but because we are facilitating the stocks we use as collateral we are in contravention of the EU directive. If we do not do something about this we will end up in the courts.
