The consequences of Brexit for the island of Ireland and for all the people of this island will be far-reaching. Last week, the Taoiseach said he intended to bring a memo to Cabinet on the implications of Brexit and also that he would make a statement on Brexit today. Will the Taoiseach confirm if he brought a memo to Cabinet and, if so, will it be published? The British Government published its White Paper two weeks ago. Does the Taoiseach's memo reference a commitment by the Government to produce a White Paper on Brexit that would set out the Government's overall strategic approach to negotiations and economic, trade, political and other objectives and will it spell out how the Government plans to defend the Good Friday Agreement and the democratic vote of the citizens in the North to remain within the European Union?
