EU Regulations and Directive on International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. David Leonard:

One of the issues that arose for potential determination related to whether there was a lawful basis for data sharing between Ireland and the UK. That is obviously not covered by anything to do with the EU migration and asylum pact but it is something the Department might want to consider, and I am sure it is considering it.
