Ged Nash (LAB), Louth

I appreciate this is a bit of an moveable feast but there are uncertainties. The G20 nations were the guardians of the OECD deal originally. The OECD adopted it and we adopted it. I welcomed at the time that we adopted the process ourselves. That was not without risks for Ireland. It was a welcome thing to do. Because the framework of this deal is subject to EU legislation, I assume EU legislation will require to be changed to accommodate this agreement if indeed there is an agreement. That will require unanimity. The likelihood is there will be unanimity because many of the G7 nations such as France, Germany and Italy and so on are part of the G7 group. What is the Minister’s view on that? Will it require legislation that will ultimately have to be adopted by this House if it is to come to pass?
