On behalf of the committee, I thank the Minister for attending this afternoon. We have heard in detail of the issues and challenges posed by Covid-19, Brexit and CAP. We look forward to working with the Minister and wish him well in his management of this key portfolio. I also thank the departmental officials for their attendance today. As the questions posed demonstrate, there is a wide range of issues of concern in this sector.

That concludes our business in public session. I propose that we meet briefly in private session to deal with the minutes of last week's meeting and agree dates for meetings between now and the end of October. I also want to brief the committee on the outcome of yesterday's ICM which I attended remotely. Is that agreed? Agreed.
