Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (17 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: I wish to raise the issue of migration, which the Taoiseach mentioned. It is clear that a humanitarian crisis is unfolding on the Belarusian border with Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. Thousands of migrants from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan are experiencing enormous suffering and are living in appalling conditions with sub-zero temperatures. Their plight is becoming increasingly desperate....

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (16 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: I welcome the fact that the Taoiseach engaged with the Northern Irish political leaders last week. I understand from what he said that the main issue for discussion was the Northern Ireland protocol and the associated Article 16. The Vice-President of the European Commission Maroš Šefčovič gave an optimistic assessment of the current position in the negotiations...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Anglo-Irish Relations (10 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: As we have heard, last week the Taoiseach told the Dáil that the triggering of Article 16 would be irresponsible, unwise and reckless. It certainly looks as though that is about to happen. Is that the Taoiseach's understanding of the position? It is totally unnecessary and will be seen as a hostile act. It would add to political instability in Northern Ireland and cause economic...

Ceisteanna - Questions: United Nations (9 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: The Taoiseach had a full-on visit to the United States. In delivering Ireland's national statement to the UN General Assembly in September, the Taoiseach rightly referred to the three Cs, namely, conflict, Covid and climate. These three issues disproportionately affect the most vulnerable populations in least developed countries. I ask the Taoiseach about climate and security and his...

Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (3 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: I am conscious of the fact the G20 summit has taken place following the October European Council meeting and in advance of the COP26 climate conference, which is under way in Glasgow. It is fair to say the outcome of the G20 meeting was a disappointment as far as climate change is concerned. These economies account for 80% of global emissions. While they agreed to deploy meaningful and...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Brexit Issues (3 Nov 2021)

Seán Haughey: From the very beginning, Brexit represented a threat to the Good Friday Agreement.
