Maire Devine (Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

This has come from a successful single market established on this island. It takes into account security of supply and there are benefits for the people of Ireland. The Brexiteers were not careful about what they wished for, especially as regards this island but also in respect of their own people in Britain.

I take the Minister's assurances but we cannot be 100% assured of anything. We still do not know where we are and the British do not know either. It is chaotic and we are in uncharted waters. This amendment sought additional security and to pin the issue down a bit more. This emergency legislation is for a crash-out, no-deal Brexit but if that happens, all bets are off.

If the Minister says they are accountable to the Oireachtas and can be called before the committee, I accept that and withdraw the amendment.
