Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Nitrates Directive, Water Quality and Pollution: Discussion
Dr. Jenny Deakin:
That is certainly a question the Commission is keen on getting the answers to. Perhaps the two Departments that the committee will speak to after us will have firmer views on how they can demonstrate that to the Commission as part of the negotiation process. The agency would not be involved in the negotiations per sein and around the nitrates action programme and the derogation. That would be a matter for the Departments.
