Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Beef and Livestock Sector: Discussion
3:55 pm
Mr. Aidan Cotter:
The Chairman is correct that there are other parts of the market, including food services and further manufacturing, where identification of country of origin does not happen. This is a retail country of origin identification and it does not apply in the other sectors. There is nothing to stop animals coming in to be processed and sold in the marketplace.
