Heather Humphreys

Minister for Rural and Community Development

I can confirm that neither I, nor Minister of State O'Brien, have attended any formal or informal Council of the European Union meetings under the remit of the Department of Rural and Community Development since 27 June 2020. I would note that, while my Department engages extensively at European level with regard to EU programmes and on policy issues of relevance to the Department, there are no formal or informal Council formations relating to rural and community development.
