Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Six-monthly Report on Developments in EU: Discussion with Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine
2:55 pm
Mr. Tom Moran:
As far as the EU is concerned the negotiations have been completed and the flexibilities that are given to member states are set down. It is now up to member states to adopt whatever proposals and drive on with implementing Pillar 1. Pillar 2 is a programme that has yet to be agreed with the Commission.
