The Minister is accompanied today by Ms Sinead McPhillips, Assistant Secretary with responsibility for meat and milk policy division; and Mr. Paul Savage, Assistant Secretary with responsibility for Brexit and EU affairs. They are also welcome to the meeting. I call on the Minister to make his opening statement.
