Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs: Conference on the Future of Europe: Discussion (Resumed) (18 Nov 2020)

Dara Calleary: I thank the Chairman. I also thank our three speakers and welcome them. I was struck by a line from Dr. Coutts' presentation when we briefly touched on the idea that we live in an era of populism, which targets international and transnational organisations and politics and that we should propose simplified forms of nationalism. In this context, the EU may be particularly vulnerable. It...

In seven weeks, Britain will leave and the transition period will be over. This is very much an under-the-bonnet Bill. It deals with the technicalities of our deep relationships and how our people interact. There are very different things involved. The Bill is...

Dara Calleary: I thank our three speakers. It has been quite illuminating. Professor Fabrini highlighted complacency issues as one of the shortcomings of the current EU Government. The convention was suggested as far back as 2016 as a response to Brexit and the soul-searching that Brexit provoked. Ms Day touched on it slightly in her presentation.
