I reckon the tackling of TB is one of the great success stories. The figure in subhead B3 is estimated to reduce from €38 million to €37 million this year. Only a relatively short number of years ago that figure was €58 million. We are down one third in terms of our expenditure on compensation for farmers as a result of TB.
