The new Commissioner for Agriculture Phil Hogan will be holding discussions with the members of the Committee on Agriculture in Brussels on 3 December. The topics for discussion are the latest developments in the Agriculture Budget 2015, an update on EU measures with regard to the Russian ban on imports, and the ongoing work on legislative proposals for organic production and school programmes. The situation in the agricultural markets (including prospects for the milk market) are also said to be on the agenda.

The discussion will be public and broadcast live (17:00-18:30)
