A Seanad debate on O’Halloran’s detention was postponed on Monday at the request of Simon Coveney.

Image: RTÉ Prime Time Image: RTÉ Prime Time A DUBLIN BUSINESS MAN barred from leaving China over a dispute has said the exit ban is having a “devastating effect” on him and his family and hopes authorities “see sense” soon.

“It’s very difficult for me to process but for the children it’s devastating. It’s very difficult to explain to a five-year-old, now seven, that Daddy’s not coming home for your birthday, your communion, your confirmation or Christmas.” The Chinese embassy said CALS is involved in a case of “illegally collecting funds” from Chinese nationals. There are no allegations of wrongdoing against O’Halloran.

“My hope is that the Chinese authorities see sense and see that the commercial solution that we are putting forward is the most viable way forward. It’s the best solution for everybody.”
