Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I agree there should not be caveats. For this reason, I am taking care to ensure that the way in which we advance the national action plan in terms of the resolution can be honoured. I agree with the Deputy that we should not make commitments if we believe we will not be in a position to fulfil them, as that would undermine our standing internationally. I am taking some care to ensure the plan as agreed is implementable.
