With respect, there is a huge difference between the North of Ireland and Brittany or Wales. We talk the language of no barriers and no border. Frankly, Ms McCarthy is talking the language of barriers and borders when she compares the North of Ireland with France or Wales. Today, we are here to talk about the island of Ireland and working together to break down barriers to trade using an all-island approach. Does Ms McCarthy think Bord Bia's remit should be widened? Does it contradict the stated Government policy?
