CHAIRPERSON’S FOREWORD<br />
<strong>Food</strong> <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Ireland</strong> clearly outlines the research needs <strong>of</strong> industry, academia, consumers and regulatory authorities and represents<br />
the significant efforts <strong>of</strong> the industry-led <strong>Food</strong> <strong>Research</strong> Expert Advisory Group. This is the first time that all stakeholders within the<br />
food research and innovation system in <strong>Ireland</strong> have come together and jointly agreed their research needs to 2020. It has been a<br />
long but worthwhile journey and I would like to thank the members <strong>of</strong> the Group for all their hard work over the last 18 months in<br />
bringing this research plan to fruition. I believe that the plan will ensure that the research funded in the future through State funded<br />
research programmes will deliver outputs that will ensure growth <strong>of</strong> the food industry in line with the targets in <strong>Food</strong> Harvest 2020<br />
and relevant priorities in the report <strong>of</strong> the National <strong>Research</strong> Prioritisation Exercise.<br />
