Mr. Tom Moran:

On South American beef, as the Senator will know, international trade relations can go on and off the boil. I think there is no prospect of offers being exchanged this year. So the conclusions of those negotiations will be a long way off. The same point I made earlier applies. Our interest in those negotiations was to ensure that the sensitivities of our concerns over beef in the European market were fully taken into account at EU level. We must not forget that the EU is the negotiator on this. It has the mandate and the legal competence. I believe we have made our points very clear in that context. I do not expect that in the near timeframe.
