============================================================

Paul McAuliffe (FF), Dublin North-West

Like other speakers, I congratulate the Tánaiste and the Minister of State on their appointments. Our party has a strong record of independent foreign policy, working within the European family and working within the multilateral rules-based order. Both Deputies will bring all those values to us and we wish them the best of luck.
I ask the Tánaiste to outline his recent call with the US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, and to comment on the recent appointment by the United States of the new special envoy to Northern Ireland on economic affairs.
