So Mr. O'Driscoll is not apologising for it. I will remain with this particular case. I understand that in the course of the case, it came to light that a senior vet associated with the special investigations unit seized animals on 24 March 2009 and that these animals were put into the food chain. The same vet subsequently made a sworn statement under oath at Bailieboro Garda Station on 7 July 2009 that the animals contained a toxic substance. How did animals that were suspected of containing a toxic substance find their way into the food chain?
