My Department is precluded under EU law (State Aid Rules) from advertising to promote specific Irish food and drink.

Bord Bia is the State Agency under my remit charged with the marketing and promotion of Irish agri-food and drink both at home and abroad.

Should the Deputy require further details on the marketing and promotion activities of Bord Bia in the years requested, the Deputy is referred to the agreed Oireachtas contact address: info@Bordbia.ie or the Bord Bia website www.bordbia.ie where the annual reports from 1998 to 2016 are available.
