I thank Mr. Foley for his strong and forceful contribution. I have long desired this issue to be discussed by the committee. We produced a report some time ago on inequity in the food supply chain, and members of the committee have long advocated action in this regard. We have found it difficult, however, to persuade people to be as frank and forthright as Mr. Foley has been today. I am sure all members are keen to contribute. I call on Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív to begin, followed by Deputy Martin Ferris.
