Yes, I agree. It is the fourth. Although it is not in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report, I want to raise the implications of Brexit. It is coming down the track next month when the British Prime Minister instigates it. Has the Department thought about the impact of Brexit on our trade between Ireland and Britain? Trade to and from Britain comes to €1.2 billion a week. Britain, our nearest neighbour, is our largest trading partner. Has the Department contingency plans in place, considering how important the agrifood sector is to our economy?
