Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Bull Beef Sector: Discussion
5:15 pm
Mr. Cormac Healy:
This can be clarified but my understanding is the process is that the details of the animals are scanned into our system as they come in. They are sent electronically to the AIM system, which is live, and it does the relevant checks. One of the checks is whether it is okay to slaughter and whether the person who has brought them in is the current owner. All these checks are done and that information comes back automatically to our system. That is the connection point.
