My question is related to Deputy Penrose's question. What steps is the Minister of State taking to safeguard the interests of the Irish agrifood sector in light of the Brexit challenge? Our overall economy is exposed to the Brexit challenge with 14% of all our exports going to the UK but with 40% of our agrifood sector exports going to the UK, the challenge facing that sector is particularly acute. The Minister of State might outline the specific steps his Department is taking to safeguard the sector?
