International Trade and International Relations: Statements (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2025-04-03
============================================================

Maria Byrne (CC), Agricultural Panel

I thank the Minister of State, Deputy Byrne, and the Tánaiste for coming here for a very meaningful discussion, and I thank Senators for all the contributions this morning with regard to this all-important topic of international trade and international relations.
Before I move on to Commencement debates, I welcome the students from Moyle Park College, Clondalkin, who are guests of the Minister of State, Deputy Emer Higgins, and also Ms Véronique Platschka from Switzerland, who is a guest of the Ceann Comhairle. They are all very welcome today and I hope they enjoy their visit to Leinster House.
