Paschal Donohoe: ...nature or level of any tariffs, the discussion and negotiation has not commenced yet. If we look at how long it took to reach agreement in the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, negotiations, or the nature of the agreement between the European Union and Canada, it took years of negotiations before they reached the ratification stage. We have not even reached the...

Mary Mitchell O'Connor: ...to regulate, reconciling approaches to trademarks and geographical indications, how to structure commitments on data flows and differences on sanitary and phytosanitary measures.

Seanad: Health (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2016: Second Stage (1 Feb 2017)

Maire Devine: ...biggest threats to this type of legislation and indeed the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill 2015 is the possible ratification of global trade deals such as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, and the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, CETA, by this Government. Little thought is given to the ramifications that this legislation can embed. I specifically refer to...

Tillage Farming: Motion [Private Members] (18 Jan 2017)

Martin Kenny: ...The safety nets must be built into our systems and policies if we are to protect Irish farming against the ravages of globalisation. A first step in this direction, of course, would be to reject TTIP and CETA, but that is not what we are about tonight. Tillage must be protected. We all remember too well what happened with the sugar beet sector. If we go down the slippery slope, that is...

Neale Richmond: ...six in regard to trade. That focuses on the EU-US trade deal. Following President-elect Trump's inauguration, I am absolutely certain that the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, will be dead in the water, and I say that very reluctantly as someone who was an outspoken supporter of TTIP. I know that is not always the most popular thing to say. I fear that having an...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation: Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement: Discussion (17 Jan 2017)

Alice-Mary Higgins: ...hearing of the benefits but Mr. Kelly mentioned our own research. The only research we know we have in Ireland is that Ireland asked, regarding the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, which is a similar agreement, that the Copenhagen institute would do research. The benefits it found for Ireland, in terms of economic growth, were 0.01% per year. When the European...

It will be the sector that will be extremely vulnerable on foot of Mercorsur, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, agreement, the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, CETA, and other such agreements. I agree with Mr. Power that the United Kingdom certainly will not be found wanting in reaching...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals (Resumed). (13 Dec 2016)

Rose Conway Walsh: ...the Tax Institute specifically mentioned the issue of court jurisdiction. We know we must have a referendum on the EU patent court, and my party has received legal advice to the effect that the TTIP agreement would require a referendum as TTIP sets up its own court above and beyond our courts. On this basis, is the Tax Institute saying it believes there may be a constitutional issue here?

The national average unemployment rate is 7.2% while Wexford's unemployment rate is 18.4% - the third worst in the entire country. According to the South East Economic Monitor project, the south-east's economy continues to be...

Neale Richmond: ...concerns and people veering towards populism but now we must begin to act. How does Ms Mizzi feel the Presidency will be able to drive the trade policies of the Union over the next six months?

Other Questions: Beef Exports (30 Nov 2016)

Willie Penrose: ...in that regard and in the context of other competing agreements, especially European free trade agreements, and of Brexit. It looks as if the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, TTIP, is dead anyhow with the advent of President-elect Trump.

Seanad: Address to Seanad Éireann by Ms Nicola Sturgeon (29 Nov 2016)

Aodhán Ó Ríordáin: .... While nationalism across Europe now has a very bad name, the First Minister's nationalism and her sense of her nation's history is to be greatly commended. I admire her stance on things like TTIP and marriage equality. I admire her determination not to allow her country, the UK and the rest of Europe break away from what has been a good and honourable movement since the mid-1940s.Let...

Other Questions: Departmental Contingency Planning (24 Nov 2016)

Tommy Broughan: ...bruising campaign, as the President-elect has called it, is that he is very hostile to trade agreements. He will immediately scrap the trans-Pacific agreement and he is hostile to NAFTA and the TTIP. Ireland is a small open economy that depends on trade. Is there an indication that the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Deputy Charles Flanagan, and his staff will need greater...

The Senator may bring forward a Private Members' Bill or a Commencement matter. It is important we...
