Impact of Trade Deals on Agriculture: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine
2:00 am
Ms Sinéad McPhillips:
As I mentioned, an impact assessment was carried out in 2021 by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment. That was specifically on the trade aspects of Mercosur. As I have explained to the other Deputies, those trade aspects have not changed since the agreement was originally negotiated in 2019.
