Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Future of the Beef Sector in the Context of Food Wise 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Des Morrison:

I will be very brief, I can promise the Chairman that. Deputy Martin Kenny mentioned the age limit of 30 months. That is the legacy of BSE, and it is far out of date. It is another weapon to extract money out of the pockets of farmers, livestock producers, and bio-processors, and that is the only reason ICMSA can see that it is there now.
