I take Mr. O'Leary's point but the way to deal with that is to make sure that it has Revenue taxation approval because then it has to be transparent and that is what would protect against it being used as a cushion for the processors. If it has that scrutiny attached to it, that cannot happen.

This has been a very interesting meeting. I hope all concerned agree. I thank the witnesses for attending and making their presentation. That concludes our proceedings today. There is no further business and the meeting now stands adjourned until Thursday, 8 October at 10 a.m. when we will have representatives from the Organic Farmers Representative Body in attendance. I apologise that some of the members had to go to a Seanad vote at the end.
