This does not deal with online shopping where somebody is buying products from abroad. I do not believe we can legislate on that, but it is an issue. If people are producing a product and they find that the legislation here prevents them from selling that product here, there is nothing to prevent them from going outside Ireland and advertising it online. It is a problem that must be considered because the amount of goods purchased online is increasing every day. It is an issue that must be taken into account.
