Brexit: Discussion with Mushroom Industry

5:00 pm

Mr. Gerry Reilly:

I thank Deputy Kenny for his comments. As a fellow mushroom grower, he understands our plight. I mentioned earlier that the Department has been a huge support for all mushroom growers. It is the reason we are in this position today. Mr. Codd might go into detail again on the way the RHI would affect mushroom growers and the position on the size of units. Ms Dwyer might outline the IFA's long-term view on sterling.
