Trade Relations
Dail Éireann — 2025-02-13
============================================================

Paschal Donohoe (FG), Dublin Central

I propose to take Questions Nos. 7 and 12 together.
To facilitate a back-and-forth discussion on the issue, I will quickly emphasise what I said in reply to Deputy Connolly earlier. Of course, due to Ireland being an open trading economy, we can be strongly affected by changes that happen in global trade. We are currently considering these potential scenarios and they will be outlined in the stability programme update in April.
