In January 2024, the Taoiseach's Government committed to a public information campaign on the benefits of immigration. Why has this not happened? Has that plan now been abandoned? I heard the Taoiseach's comments earlier. The reality is that some migrants are more welcome than others, judging by the changes to the family reunification system last week. Migrants are the backbone of many sectors in our economy and yet we are seeing mixed messages that are a gross failure of leadership by the Taoiseach's Government. To my mind, these mixed messages are fuelling racism and we are seeing far too many attacks on migrant workers across our communities. Is the Taoiseach going to commit to a positive public information campaign on the benefits of immigration to this country?
