So from what I understand, this means that when I roam in the United Kingdom on an Irish sim, I get no extra roaming charges, which is great.

Does anyone know if this has any effect on calls/texts to other countries?

This is already the case for some carriers, Vodafone (when Passport is enabled) off the top of my head, and also Meteor. Has been the case for some time.

There has been an issue with data though, and I'm not sure the new proposal solves that. Also if you have a plan with minutes, they won't be included as minutes while abroad, you'll be charged, but at a standard home rate.
