AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Rare Disease Breakthrough: Ireland’s Friedreich’s Ataxia community marks the approval of Skyclarys (omaveloxolone) as a hard-won step after years with no treatment. EU Security & Foreign Policy: EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas brands the Leipzig drone incident “state-sponsored terrorism” as Germany and the bloc prepare tougher Russia measures and Ukraine presses for more air defence. Agriculture & Food Safety: The EU bans Brazilian beef and poultry over antimicrobial compliance, while the UK seeks “urgent assurances” rather than automatically copying the ban—raising fears of diversion. North-South Farm Policy: In Northern Ireland, genotyping starts under the Bovine Genetics Project, but DAERA rejects FOI requests tied to a controversial 2026 cattle cull. Governance & Integrity: SIPO is probing Minister Niall Collins over alleged involvement in a mid-2000s land deal. Local Economy & Housing: Galway rents keep climbing, with a two-bed in the city now averaging €2,336 a month. Road Safety: Galway launches a strategy aiming to cut deaths and serious injuries by 50% by 2030.
