On subhead C5 and the Health and Safety Authority, in particular the agricultural side of things, representatives from the authority appeared before the Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine some time ago. There is an ongoing high number of deaths in this area, in particular of young children. It was stated that there will be a reduction in the number of inspectors but an increase in the number of discussion groups. Does the Minister of State have any information on how this will operate or what sort of roll-out or timeframe is envisaged?
