I met with representatives of the Irish Tobacco Manufacturers Advisory Committee (ITMAC) in 2013. This meeting was attended by the Taoiseach and the Minister for Justice and Equality on matters concerning the revision to the EU Tobacco Products Directive as well as tobacco smuggling and the illicit tobacco market. I was accompanied at the meeting by one of my advisors.
