Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I will respond to a range of matters. Perhaps I should not have accepted the invitation, it was premature to do so and I should have insisted on waiting until September or October until I had had the opportunity to do the body of work I am proposing to do to attempt to be of assistance to the committee. I will reflect on that the next time I receive an invitation. I am here to try to be of...

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: How may weeks exactly have I have been in this position? I am trying to introduce a new process. Perhaps the committee would listen to the words I am saying rather than refer back to notes, which I qualified as I read them. Listen to what I am saying. I am trying to introduce a new process for the benefit of this committee and of the management of statutory instrument processes more...

- Committee on Scrutiny of Draft EU-related Statutory Instruments: Engagement with Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs (17 Jul 2024)
Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I thank the Senator, I do understand. This is precisely why I am trying to get a process in place. I cannot determine this. I can only look for agreement to it, to publish that draft statutory instrument. This is essentially going to be the policy direction that the Department takes. It is right that the committee has that. It is totally appropriate that the committee has it as early as...

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: There is a body of work we can do together before this Oireachtas finishes. We can improve the process across Government. I want to do that for the next Oireachtas. We have a chance here to work together to get a new process in place, which, as the Senator says, will be a different process for the first time in 50 years. It will be a better scrutiny process. I will not be able to get the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: General Affairs Council Meetings: Discussion (25 Sep 2024)
Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I am very happy to appear before this committee for the first time as Minister of State for European affairs and defence. I sent this statement yesterday. I was writing it from the General Affairs Council to try to encompass yesterday's work, so if I have to deviate slightly to provide further updates, I am sure members will forgive me. I look forward to discussing the issues arising from...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: General Affairs Council Meetings: Discussion (25 Sep 2024)
Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: It is no difficulty. However, as I think of further information, I might provide it because I want to do the best I can to answer across the board. I will take them in turn, starting with the Middle East situation and what has happened in Lebanon. We are deeply concerned about the escalating violence in the Middle East. It is hard to say, but the committee will be aware that there are...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: General Affairs Council Meetings: Discussion (25 Sep 2024)
Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I thought that too and wondered if I was qualified. They really are great jobs and a great basis for developing a really interesting, well-paid career with great opportunities. The Deputy is right to identify it. We are trying to change it but I am going to need a lot of help to tell this story more broadly. On the question of neutrality and whether we are under pressure on that, I have...
