The twelve-member committee will look at issues as diverse as trade, agriculture, education and transport – all key issues to Wexford. 

Senator Byrne said he was honoured by the appointment.

“I’ve been talking about the challenges of Brexit for several years, including organising a well-attended ‘Brexit and Wexford’ conference. There will be profound changes in the relationships on these islands while our bonds with continental Europe will deepen further,” he told WexfordLocal.com
