Brexit Issues: British Irish Chamber of Commerce
10:00 am
Ms Katie Daughen:
I was about to come back to that. I realised I had not addressed those issues. With regard to the Deputy's suggestion on the EU reform fund, it is something for which the chamber has previously advocated. It is in our SME committee's policy paper on Brexit which was published last summer or autumn. I am happy to provide the Deputy with a copy. We believe there should be an EU reform fund to help not just businesses in Ireland but those across the EU who are facing challenges because of Brexit in order to make sure they are not unduly impacted by a decision which is not of their making. It is something we have considered.
