Micheál Martin

Question:

61. Deputy Micheál Martin asked the Taoiseach when Cabinet committee C (European Union including Brexit) last met. [15112/19]

Written answers

The Taoiseach

The remit of Cabinet Committee C covers EU and international issues, including Brexit, and assists my participation as a member of the European Council.

It last met on Thursday 21 June 2018, in advance of the European Council on 28/29 June 2018. The next meeting has not yet been scheduled.

Given the significance of Brexit for the country we have discussed it regularly at full Cabinet rather than at Cabinet Committee level, over the past number of months.

I also meet with individual Ministers or groups of relevant Ministers to focus on particular issues, including those relating to Brexit, and other EU and international issues.
