I propose to take Questions Nos. 539 and 552 together.
The Monitoring Committee for Ireland's Rural Development Programme is already established and was set up in July 2015 in accordance with Article 47 of (EU) Regulation 1303/2015. This is to cover the period for the current RDP which runs from 2014-2020.
My Department has already had some correspondence with named organisation on this matter and I am scheduled to meet with this organisation next week.
