Good morning colleagues, 

Leading the day's news is Government reaction to “provocative” and “unhelpful” comments by Israel’s defence minister yesterday, that displaced Gaza residents should be resettled in Ireland. Meanwhile, the US president signs (yet another) executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court.

Also making front page news today is news that tax receipts amounted to €10.1bn in the first month of the year, support for Irish unity has grown significantly in recent years, and if you're driving today, please be aware that the speed limit on rural and local roads will change from 80km/h to 60km/h today.
