Written answers
The EU agenda has always been important for Ireland and continues to be a priority. Since taking up office on 30 November 2017, my Ministerial colleagues, Ministers of State Pat Breen and John Halligan, and I have worked closely with a range of EU partners.
The tables below list the various meetings of the Council of Ministers in both Trade and Competitiveness configurations, as well as the various bilateral meetings that we have attended. Over the same period, we have engaged with EU like-minded counterparts on an informal basis, usually on the margins of Council meetings.
My Ministerial colleagues and I will continue to engage with our EU counterparts on an ongoing basis at numerous EU related events.
Minister Heather Humphreys
