Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 November 2018
145. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if he, his departmental officials and or his ministerial predecessors have met companies and an organisation (details supplied) or representatives of same in the past three years to date; if so, if a schedule of those meetings and the associated minutes will be published; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44777/18]
View answerIn the past three years, I have not met with representatives of the named company or organisation. In the course of the work of my Department, there is regular interaction with prominent Irish citizens, including for example at Irish community or other official functions and correspondence can arise in relation to such events. For example, an invitation issued to a person from the named company, from my predecessor as Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Mr. Charlie Flanagan, TD, to attend the Global Irish Economic Forum in 2015, but the individual did not attend.
