Brexit Supports
Dail Éireann — 2022-06-22
============================================================

Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

I again thank the Deputy. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine is currently assessing whether these evolving impacts are eligible to be addressed by the BAR-funded measures that would future-proof the sector against such impacts, as the Deputy stated. It is also engaging with stakeholders and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform to confirm which impacts and measures are eligible and meet the criteria for BAR funding. I again assure the House that the Government will explore all opportunities to develop measures to support the industry to adapt to the challenges Brexit continues to present for Irish food and fish producers. As I said, I will certainly raise the issue with the Minister and ask him to reply directly to the Deputy.
