Cabinet Committee C, which covers EU and international issues, including Brexit, last met on 21 June 2018.
Given the significance of Brexit for the country, it is important that all Cabinet Ministers are fully across what is happening.
Therefore, over the past 12 months, it has been discussed on at least 25 occasions at full Cabinet level.
Recently Memos were brought to Cabinet for discussion on Brexit Preparedness Planning.
I also meet with individual Ministers or groups of relevant Ministers to focus on particular issues, including those relating to Brexit and other EU and international issues.
The date of the next meeting of Cabinet Committee C has not been confirmed.
The Tánaiste continues to hold Brexit Stakeholder Forum engagements, most recently on 29 May.
