My Department has not established a Brexit sub Committee but a Brexit coordinator has been appointed to manage any impacts of Brexit on the business of the Department and to liaise with the Departments of An Taoiseach and Foreign Affairs and Trade. My Department is also represented on the Inter-Departmental Group on EU-UK Affairs.
Ireland's preparations for Brexit are being strongly co-ordinated from the centre of Government through the Brexit Cabinet Committee chaired by An Taoiseach. In all negotiations the Government will strive to ensure that the best possible outcomes will be achieved for our citizens, for the economy, for Northern Ireland and for the Common Travel Area. We continue to outline these priority issues at all of our meetings with EU counterparts at both official and political level.
