I agree that at any engagement with world leaders of states involved in supplying weapons to Israel, we have to bring up the brutal genocide and unacceptability of any of that. I agree with what many Deputies have said about ensuring that we have repeal of the legacy Act and that we find a fit-for-purpose solution to provide truth and justice to the families of those killed in Dublin and Monaghan; of Hugh Watters and Jack Rooney, who were killed in the Dundalk bombing; of Seamus Ludlow; of Sean Brown; and of many others. That is something that needs to happen. I have spoken to the Taoiseach previously about the need to make sure that regardless of who is in government in the near future, we talk about making preparations for the possibility of constitutional change and a united Ireland. That is something we have to do the preparatory work for. I have also spoken to the Taoiseach - this was brought up again at a recent awards event I attended at Dundalk Chamber of Commerce - about cross-Border taxation issues, especially regarding remote workers. The British Government at this point in time may be easier to engage with. We also have Conor Murphy as Minister for the Economy and Caoimhe Archibald as Minister of Finance in the North. The Taoiseach spoke previously about the possibility of a hub to deal with these sorts of cross-Border issues. Has he given any more thought to that? Is it any further on? We need to see that and then do the preparatory work on real and meaningful change that will deliver a better Ireland for all of us.
