I asked a question earlier seeking an answer in percentage terms. Of all beef calves born in Ireland each year, what percentage are there from beginning to end in Ireland in total about which the ICBF knows everything? Mr. Doran was correcting some of the things said here earlier. Perhaps I misheard him. I thought I heard references to the IFA and the ICMSA. Is that right?

Why is there not someone here from the ICSA or the INHFA? They are farming organisations as well. Is there someone who is on 14 or 15 of the breeds?
