-----so what is ICOS planning to do for the people it is in contract with? Would there be merit in a round-table conversation with the entire chain? People are making money on the backs of the livelihoods of others. Mr. O'Gorman has rightly said that the co-operatives will not be served well if some of these farmers are forced out of business because that will have a bigger impact in the long term. Is there merit in that and has ICOS or its member organisations engaged up the chain in order to get this issue resolved?
