We are back into the expenses again. In terms of training in use of glyphosate, I was surprised to note there is the need for a course on the awareness and implications of applying it and the alternatives and safe storage of it. When we had the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine in on this, we were told it was not in its remit to point out specific alternatives. There seems to be a gap in the communication. What can solve that?
