I appreciate the response the Minister has given but my time is very limited. The question I asked is whether we are going to support, at a European level, what the Biden Administration is now supporting, which is a waiver under the TRIPS Agreement.
When the matter comes up with the World Trade Organization, the European bloc will obviously have its position. Is the Irish Government going to be a leader in this regard? Will it be a voice within the European Union to ensure this is something the Union will support?
