View answerAs Ireland holds the Presidency of the European Council, I chaired the Culture component of the EYCS configuration of the European Council on 17 May 2013 and the elements of the Council of Environment Ministers for which I am responsible on 21 March 2013. As I was in the Chair on both occasions, Ireland was represented by senior officials of my Department.
