I have not had discussions to date at the Council of Ministers on the reassignment of European Union agencies after the UK’s departure from the EU.

While Government will seek to pursue any appropriate opportunities for Ireland arising from the UK’s departure, there are no specific plans at present in relation to EU agencies within the direct responsibility of my Department.
