    WELCOME Welcome to the 57th Anniversary Dinner of the Ireland-U.S. Council. I wish to offer greetings to all our members and their guests on this important anniversary when we celebrate our continued engagement of the core mission we have set for ourselves of strengthening closer commercial connections and enhancing better business bonds between America and Ireland. As it happens, this is a Golden Age for the economic relationships between our two countries. This past year has been a year of great Brian W. Stack economic progress in both the United States and in Ireland. From the neat vantage point which we in the Ireland-U.S. Council occupy, we are afforded a generous, big-picture overview of the state of Ireland-U.S. economic relations. The very important business links that connect America and Ireland in capital investment, trade, tourism, and technology transfer have never been in more robust health. The Ireland-U.S. Council is a membership organization. We must always underline how thankful we are for the support and participation received during this past year from Council members and from our benefactors, patrons and sponsors. The support you have offered has been crucial in sustaining the organization’s roster of programs and activities during this past year. Because of your support, we have been enabled to continue our work which we believe makes a worthwhile contribution to the betterment of the economic circumstances of all the people in the United States and in Ireland, north and south. We continue to believe, with good reason, that improved and expanded investment, trade and tourism in both directions between America and Ireland betters the lives, livelihoods and economic circumstances of everyone.

The Council does this by convening meetings; conducting a wide-ranging Studies program; publish- ing Foreign Affairs, the preeminent journal covering international affairs and U.S. foreign policy; maintaining a diverse membership; sponsoring Independent Task Forces; and providing up- to-date information about the world and U.S. foreign policy on the Council’s website, www.cfr.org. THE COUNCIL TAKES NO INSTITUTIONAL POSITION ON POLICY ISSUES AND HAS NO AFFILIATION WITH THE U.S.GOVERNMENT. ALLSTATEMENTS OF FACT AND EXPRESSIONS OF OPINION CONTAINED IN ITS PUBLICA- TIONS ARE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE AUTHOR OR AUTHORS. The Council will sponsor an Independent Task Force when (1) an issue of current and critical importance to U.S. foreign policy arises, and (2) it seems that a group diverse in backgrounds and perspectives may, nonetheless, be able to reach a meaningful consensus on a policy through private and nonpartisan deliberations.
