This week agreement was reached on the process to select the location of a new EU authority on anti-money laundering.
Dublin is one of 9 EU cities bidding to host the Authority. With our strong record and clear government support, it is an ideal location

We need an effective EU Action Plan on Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) 🇪🇺
Despite decades of progress in reducing the burden of heart disease in the EU it remains the number 1️⃣ cause of premature death and leading cause of death of women.

RT by @FitzgeraldFrncs: Seul un OUI est un OUI !
Voici le message que nous adressons aux Etats membres, et plus particulièrement à la France et à l'Allemagne, qui refusent toujours l'inclusion d'une définition européenne du viol dans la première loi européenne de lutte contre les violences faites aux femmes.
Dans quelques minutes, une nouvelle réunion de négociation débute. Le Parlement n’acceptera pas un texte au rabais et refusera de sacrifier les centaines de milliers de femmes victimes de viol chaque année.
J’en appelle à @EmmanuelMacron @Elisabeth_Borne et @E_DupondM. En France, une femme est victime d’un viol ou tentative de viol toutes les 10 minutes.
Aux Etats membres, un texte sans définition du viol : c'est NON !
