Paschal Donohoe: Ireland will be ready for a hard Brexit

Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has said Ireland is planning for challenges in the event of a hard Brexit and faces a “higher risk” if the Brexit deal is not accepted by Britain.

Speaking at the Fine Gael Ard Fheis in City West, Dublin, he also pressed Fianna Fáil to conclude negotiations to renew the government support pact soon in the “interests of the country”.
