Rose Conway Walsh: I completely understand that. Regarding investment in IT infrastructure, is it a matter of discussing with the United Kingdom its current systems? Are we already completely familiar with them? What might the UK systems look like after Brexit or during a transition period?

Rose Conway Walsh: Is Mr. Cody familiar with those? I will not continue with this element any further. I am happy that there are at least discussions on it. Those discussions should continue. I would have more faith in those than on relying on 27 member states to get the best deal for us. If after Brexit I buy a dress in Belfast for €500, is there a danger that I will be stopped on the way back to...

Rose Conway Walsh: That is right. What if the dress is worth €400?

Rose Conway Walsh: Really? That is for everybody. I need to work this into my budget. Anybody who purchases anything in the North will be expected to make an individual declaration. If he or she does not, he or she will be breaching Revenue rules. Does Mr. Cody believe that is practical?

Rose Conway Walsh: My colleague is saying 7% of people are stopped in Norway. I would have a 7% chance of being stopped. There will be many law-breakers here. It will be a huge problem.

Rose Conway Walsh: What if somebody from the North is buying the dress in Dublin, going the other direction?

Rose Conway Walsh: I would still be breaking the law, regardless. Therefore, I will have my conscience to deal with.

Rose Conway Walsh: Of course. I just want to present the argument. I do not believe people have fully thought through what exactly this will mean. I want to get back to the question of special status for the North in the European Union. Does Mr. Keegan's organisation advocate special status for the North within the European Union? How much work is it doing to promote that? It would seem to be the...

Rose Conway Walsh: I disagree with Mr. Keegan's organisation because part of the problem is that while we are looking after the whole club and what it wants for us, it is really a matter of what we want as a nation, country and island. Much more robust negotiations, not only by the Government but also by organisations, including that of Mr. Keegan, are needed to try to influence the policy at this stage. ...

Rose Conway Walsh: Have we looked at the value of special status for the North to companies island-wide? Have we quantified what the value would be were there to be special status for the North within the EU?

Rose Conway Walsh: There is no time to go into it today, but there will be huge problems around country of origin and accumulation of products.

Rose Conway Walsh: It is something we probably need a separate session on. I also have major concerns around the smaller businesses, in particular those in rural Ireland where we do not have broadband or a very ad hocbroadband system. There must be real discussions between Revenue and the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment as to how these companies can make online declarations and...

Rose Conway Walsh: First, I wish to propose a change in the Order of Business, to call for a vote on motion No. 18 of the non-Government motions on the Order Paper and for that be taken at the conclusion of statements on areas of natural constraint, ANC, with the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
- Seanad: Order of Business (24 May 2017)
Rose Conway Walsh: I wish to call for a vote at the end of the debate on ANCs today with the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine on motion No. 18 of the non-Government motions on the Order Paper. I can explain it to the Leader later.
- Seanad: Order of Business (24 May 2017)
Rose Conway Walsh: I know. That is why I wish to change the Order of Business. I wish to insert that motion there. It is already on the Order Paper.
