European Union (Scrutiny) Bill, 2001 changed from European Union Bill, 2001: Second Stage.

 

The increase in trade to the applicant countries has been outstanding over the past few years, and this will continue. Ireland voted very decisively in favour of the Single European Act. There were various concerns and we discussed all the details of that particular Act. It was not a doomsday situation. Issues such as trade difficulties, privatisation of the ESB, privatisation of postal services and so on were teased out.
