Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

North-South Implementation Bodies: safefood Ireland

Mr. Ray Dolan:

I totally agree with everything the Deputy said. The difficulty is with the food that would come in from South America, but it gave me great encouragement in the past six months to be in London and meet the chair of the Food Standards Agency. She was really gung-ho about the standards that had been achieved over the years under EU legislation and she was going to do everything in her power to maintain those, whatever the outcome of Brexit was going to be.

I thought that was very encouraging. She was definitely on the same page as us.
