Covid-19 (Brexit): Statements (11 Jun 2020)

Cian O'Callaghan: We can take from that answer that the UK's attempt to revise the text through the paper it has published in terms of goods and goods at risk will not be accepted by Ireland or the EU. That is an acceptable summation in that regard. My summation of that is the UK's attempt to backtrack on the Northern Ireland protocol will not be accepted by the Irish Government. They are my words, not the...

Covid-19 (Brexit): Statements (11 Jun 2020)

Cian O'Callaghan: Does the Minister of State not think it would be in Ireland's interest to have it discussed in detail? Given the stages of the negotiations and the fact that they have not been going well, we need detailed discussion at European level now.

Covid-19 (Brexit): Statements (11 Jun 2020)

It has changed the language used so that instead of referring to goods which are "at risk" of...

Covid-19 (Brexit): Statements (11 Jun 2020)

It is my view that the strategy of the UK in this process has always been to run down the clock to ensure that a comprehensive agreement cannot be reached. They do not want a comprehensive, quality agreement on a level playing field that would ensure...

Climate Action and Low Carbon Development: Statements (Resumed) (10 Jun 2020)

Cian O'Callaghan: I have been talking to builders who are on sites now constructing social housing and it is being connected to gas supply and fossil fuels. I do not see how that makes sense. Ten or 15 years hence, we could be retrofitting social houses that are being built now to install heat pumps.
