? CABINET APPROVES FINAL STEPS AS IRELAND PREPARES TO JOIN CERN ? ? Cabinet has approved the final steps in Ireland’s process to join CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, as an Associate Member. Following today’s decision, the Taoiseach signed a Government Order to enable the State to meet its obligations under the CERN Protocol on Privileges and Immunities. The remaining steps are now for Ireland to notify the Director-General of CERN that the internal approval procedures for the Associate Membership Agreement are complete, and to deposit an Instrument of Accession to the CERN Protocol on Privileges and Immunities with UNESCO. Following a mandatory waiting period, Ireland’s Associate Membership is expected to begin officially in October. “Associate Membership of CERN is a long-standing national ambition and a commitment in the Programme for Government,” Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science James Lawless said. “However, joining CERN is only the beginning of Ireland’s journey. It is a priority for me as Minister to ensure Ireland's success as an Associate Member State. My Department will establish an expert advisory group in the coming months to guide our national approach to CERN membership. This group will work with my Department to maximise benefits for both Ireland and CERN.” ?? Associate Membership of CERN will bring benefits to Ireland across research, industry, skills, science outreach, and international relations. It will open doors for Ireland’s researchers to participate in CERN’s scientific programmes and will make Irish citizens eligible for staff positions and fellowships at CERN. ??? It will also be possible for Irish citizens to access CERN’s formal training schemes and develop skills in industry-relevant areas such as electronics, photonics, materials, energy systems and software. ???? Membership will also allow Irish businesses to compete for contracts with CERN. CERN’s cutting-edge research often demands the development and application of new technologies, encouraging innovation. Many technologies pioneered at CERN have applications in other spheres such as healthcare, space, energy and ICT.
