My Department is working closely with the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform to maximise the funding from BAR that is available to the various areas within the agri-food sector. As part of my Department’s 2023 supplementary estimate I intend to increase the 2023 BAR allocation further, subject to Oireachtas approval.
