Vol. 448 No. 7

Written Answers. - Food Promotions Abroad.

Denis Foley

Question:

92 Mr. Foley asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the promotions, if any, of Irish food that are planned abroad for 1995; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2886/95]

Following is a list of overseas trade fairs, exhibitions and shows at which Irish food will be promoted by An Bord Bia in 1995. These events are but one element in a comprehensive ongoing programme of promotion and market development activities being undertaken by the board. I am confident that these activities will significantly enhance our food sales abroad.
