Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 199 to 208, inclusive, together.
The Deputy has requested various details in respect of dairy trade between Ireland and Britain/Northern Ireland, across a range of product categories, for the year 2017. The CSO are the agency responsible for collating and disseminating this information, and recently released provisional trade data for the period January to December 2017 inclusive. This is set out in the attached table.
For cheese, a percentage estimate is included in respect of cheddar as a proportion of the total cheese category. It should be noted that the data as compiled is based on CSO preliminary estimates which will be subject to periodic revision based on updated trade statistics.
In view of the volume of statistical data collected as part of agrifood trade statistics, some errors in respect of individual products may occur. Where these anomalies are identified, the Department will liaise with the Central Statistics Office to highlight and amend the information as required.
