Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Discussion (Resumed)

12:30 pm

Mr. Trevor Donnellan:

It is the parent Department. It usually contacts us rather than the other way around. We have quite a high level of engagement with it. In the new year, we will move to the next stage of discussions on the successor to the current Food Wise 2025 programme, which will provide the path for the agriculture sector to 2030. We expect to be asked to speak to a committee if such is formed in that regard. We are active on a broad range of areas, such as Brexit. The discussion on reform of the CAP has not really begun, but I expect we will have an active involvement in that next year and will engage with the Department and other organisations, including those whose representatives are currently in the Public Gallery.
