Walsh refers study on CAP reforms

FINDINGS by FAPRI-Ireland on the likely impact of CAP reform and WTO proposals on Irish agriculture are to be referred to consultative groups established by Minister Joe Walsh.

Mr Walsh welcomed the publication of the FAPRI-Ireland study, which he had requested.

It examined the effects of the European Commission's proposals for the Mid-Term Review of the CAP and for the current round of WTO trade negotiations.
