-----with people on the ground. What we are discussing here is a prime example of the lack of communication on research that Teagasc conducted. It was decided to announce that, which has led to a huge impact on farmers. I want to again ask about the lack of communication and the structures that have been set up. Out of the 80 employees employed there are no agri-advisers as such and the ICBF works with Teagasc in order to work with farmers. I know that your specialty is economic indexes and statistics. Is there an economist on the board or employed within the ICBF?
