689. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if any further measures to protect the agri-food sector are in order; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [60482/21]
View answerThe Deputy will be aware that I launched the new Food Vision 2030 strategy with the Taoiseach and Government colleagues in August. The Deputy will also be aware that we are currently finalising Ireland's CAP Strategic Plan (CSP) for the period 2023 to 2027.The processes for developing these included detailed assessments, consultations and analysis, including SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis. Both Food Vision 2030 and the draft CSP reflect the outcome of this analysis to ensure, as much as is possible, that the Irish agrifood sector will remain sustainable and viable into the future and well positioned to address future challenges and opportunities.
