Michael Healy-Rae
Question:513. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Health in view of the fact that it has been publicly stated that if tobacco companies are not allowed to use their branding, it could breach the intellectual property rights of these companies and these rights are guaranteed under the Constitution and the European Convention of Human Rights, if there is a possibility that the Government is exposing the Irish taxpayer to a court case which could cost hundreds of millions of euro; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
