Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

The Deputy will understand that the Commission looks at the matter and says Ireland slaughters an extra 10,000 animals per week, which may have something to do with the price dynamic. The Commission believes that if it is to provide money to Ireland, there will have to be some kind of supply adjustment. That is its perspective.

The heading on the regulation will be temporary adjustment aid. The same happened with milk in 2016, when there was a voluntary reduction scheme for farmers who wanted to reduce the supply. It is the same kind of initiative.
