[Fsfe-ie] Letter for Competitiveness Council

[Malcolm Tyrrell]

Hi all.

It looks like the directive will be put forward as an A-item at the
Competitiveness Council meeting of March 7th. We'll have to inform the
Irish Representative to vote against. I've put the bare bones of a letter
on the Wiki. It's still in a very rough state, so any help would be
appreciated:

Malcohol.

P.S. I don't hold a lot of hope for persuading the Irish representative to
object. Recall that it was the Irish Government who put this draft forward
at the Competitiveness Council meeting of May last year.
