I refer the Deputy to my reply to Parliamentary Question Number 46 of 21 February 2019.

An announcement in relation to the designation of the location for this year's National Famine Commemoration will be made shortly.

Proposals are currently being developed by officials of my Department and Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in relation to the 2019 International Famine Commemoration and these will be submitted to the Committee for consideration shortly.
