We will now engage with the Minister, Deputy Ross, on matters related to Brexit. There are two parts to the meeting. In the first we will consider the heads of the Miscellaneous Provisions (Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union on 29 March 2019) Bill 2019 insofar as they relate to transport, tourism and sport. In the second part we will focus on the preparations for Brexit and its impact on the transport sector in Ireland, particularly in the event that there is a no-deal scenario. Once we have finished with the heads of Bill, we will take a short break.

To address a query I received, the process at the committee is that we take questions from all members of the committee first. Other Members are then welcome to come in and make contributions.
