To return to what Deputy Carthy asked about, as the Chairman knows there are a number of meat processing plants in our county. I will take the Minister at his word that testing is ongoing, but why is there so much secrecy? Workers in these plants have contacted us with concern about their working conditions and members of the public in the area ask us questions continually. It seems we have gone back to the very start, whereby everything is kept hush-hush. If all this testing is ongoing and everything is clear and above board, why is more information not coming out?
