...about the process unfolding and whether it will just become a passive listening exercise is a great one. From our perspective, there is a big challenge in this regard.

We import 52,000 tonnes of apples, 47,000 tonnes of onions and 23,000 tonnes of cabbage. If one shoves them in the ground, they nearly grow themselves.

Paul Murphy: ...makes a political choice not to prioritise and not to open access to third level education in this way while it simultaneously claims not only that we can afford not to charge the big multinational corporations, such as Apple, basically any tax at all in this country, but that we have to do so.
