A Dáil vote on CETA was delayed after Green Party members asked for more time to consider it.
There's concerns over a system in the deal that could allow corporations to sue the Government over policies that damage their profits.
Tánaiste Leo Varadkar has said that option is already available to companies and isn't a new element of CETA:
The Tánaiste add that people are being misled on the impact of the trade deal, which the Dáil is yet to ratify:
Leo Varadkar admitted to me in Committee that if we ratify CETA, the Candian company which owns IRES REIT could sue the Irish state in a special investor court system if we introduce further rent controls.

A Dáil vote has been delayed because of issues raised within the Green Party.
Green Senator Roisin Garvey says the deal is not what's been portrayed by some
