Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

The Tánaiste has not given us the answers that she must consider. She must answer the question as to whether the Government will accommodate an opportunity to address this matter in the coming week. Has this been agreed with the other member states? What is the level of the commitment this Government has given, behind the scenes and without openness and transparency?

We learnt of this yesterday. What is the level of the Government's extended commitment to the implementation of what is involved in all of this? The Tánaiste does not even know whether legislation will be required. Not only might legislation be required but also a new treaty.
