I take on board the Minister of State's reply and will withdraw the amendment with a view to reintroducing it on Report Stage. Nevertheless, and he has indicated he will make a contribution in this regard, I am concerned there is not enough in primary legislation to detail what will be in the food waste prevention strategy. It may end up weak in terms of targets, accountability and enforceability. The Minister of State has spoken to some of those points but he might reflect on it before Report Stage and, whether in the legislation or in his comments at that point, emphasise the issue.
