Mr. Jim Breslin:

Yes, very much so. The methodology for Dublin Port, for example, is that the documentation will be lodged by the importer in advance of the product getting onto the ferry in Holyhead, let us say. The importer will have lodged the documentation and it will be assessed, including in respect of food items, as to whether the cargo is risk rated for inspection. The Revenue Commissioners will send a message to the haulier on the ferry that he or she will have to go to an inspection point to be inspected. The inspection might be conducted by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine staff if the product is meat, for example, or by customs officers if they have an interest in the cargo or by HSE environmental health staff in respect of certain food items.
