Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

State of the Union 2016: European Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development

12:00 pm

Mr. Phil Hogan:

The question of a side deal for Ireland before or after March 2017, when the British Prime Minister proposes to trigger Article 50, is something about which I know nothing. However, I do not expect that there will be any side deals. It will be very open.
