Exports: Republic of Ireland

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment she has made of the potential effect on the level of milk exports to the Republic of Ireland when the UK leaves the EU.

Answer

Work is ongoing to understand the implications for the UK of leaving the EU under a range of scenarios.
