Beef Task Force: Discussion
Mr. Michael Dowling:
Nobody has given an explanation per se. I emphasis the beef task force was set up to oversee the implementation of the agreements of August and September 2019. A series of actions were agreed. That is what the task force has been doing. It was not asked to take, or those actions do not include taking, a view as to whether or not there is a cartel operating in the beef sector. As I said, there is mechanism for having that examined and that is where it should be examined.
