The Government reshuffle means that Dóchas now has to deal a new Minister for Foreign Affairs & Trade, Charlie Flanagan TD, as well as a new Minister of State for “ODA, Trade Promotion and North-South Relations”.
To welcome the two new Ministers, and to thank the outgoing Minister, Dóchas has written to all three.
You can find here the letter to Joe Costello TD and to Charlie Flanagan TD – a very similar letter has gone out to Sean Sherlock.
It is important to build on the strong political support that exists in Leinster House towards the Overseas Aid Budget.
Here links to two recent policy papers:
Dóchas’ submission to the review of Ireland’s foreign policy
Dóchas’ submission to Budget 2014
ATD is associate member of Dóchas.
