My Department is working closely with the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform to maximise the funding from BAR that is available to the various areas within the agri-food sector. Ultimately the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform will determine which schemes form part of Ireland’s BAR claim which is due to be submitted in September 2024
