I propose to take Questions Nos. 206 and 207 together.

There are no and have not been designated services of economic interest related to agricultural technology and neither of the bodies in question are part of such an agreement. This is also the case for services related to software for farm management.

My colleague, the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, can advise on the current list of designated services of economic interest nationally as reported to the EU.
