Mr. Joe Ryan:
Would the Deputy consider himself to be an EU citizen, though? The claim is being made that the industry is based solely on migrant labour but, regarding EU citizens who are here, as we heard from speakers this morning, ten or 15 years with children in college, are they still classed as migrants? We do not believe so.
