34 Deputy Máire Hoctor asked the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food his plans for the implementation of the recommendations set out in Food Harvest 2020 in relation to organics and horticulture; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40773/10]

Action on all recommendations is overseen by the High Level Implementation Committee (HLIC) which I chair. In relation to horticulture, a Horticulture Action Group will shortly be established to oversee implementation and to report back to the HLIC on an ongoing basis on progress. Responsibility for progressing actions in relation to organics and all areas is being assigned at senior official and State Body CEO level, as relevant.
