I welcome the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Deputy Simon Coveney, and thank him for coming before the joint committee to discuss the fodder crisis which is impacting severely on farmers in many parts of the country. Before we commence, I remind members of the long-standing parliamentary practice to the effect that they should not comment on, criticise or make charges against a person outside the Houses or an official either by name or in such a way as to make him or her identifiable. I invite the Minister to commence.
