(Limerick West): Does the Minister agree that the industry has expressed dissatisfaction at his approach? Will he have discussions with the industry with a view to achieving better co-ordination in regard to all food processing interests? Has the Minister had dialogue with the Minister for Industry and Commerce, who is also responsible for the food industry?

I am not aware the industry as a whole is disappointed. I meet them every day of the week and we are involved in various promotions. Certain people in the industry may not be altogether happy but some people are never happy. I have daily communications with the Minister for Industry and Commerce and the Minister for Agriculture.
