I thank the officials for attending and updating us on the position. On some of the comments made, Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív has referred to farmers in the west who may be Irish Farmers Association supporters but who do not believe they are represented by it. I would be interested to know if the Deputy represents his party's view or is he speaking in a personal capacity?
