I thank Ms McCarthy for her opening statement. Before I call Deputy Cahill, Ms McCarthy might enlighten the committee on the role Bord Bia plays in live exports. They are a key part of the beef trade and competition is the lifeblood of trade. There was much commentary on that issue, particularly calf exports, earlier in the year. Ms McCarthy might enlighten us on the role Board Bia plays in that area and the role it might be able to play in it in the future.
