Written answers

My understanding is that the meeting was organised by Minister of State Paul Kehoe and included a delegation comprising of Rosslare Europort, Wexford County Council, a private freight company (Perennial Freight), and Irish Rail. Ireland's European Commissioner, Phil Hogan, was also in attendance. My office was not contacted about the meeting and no officials from this Department attended.
