I met with Alcohol Action Ireland and IBEC on the alcohol legislation. In fact, I met with IBEC after the Minister, Deputy Donnelly, had signed the regulation for the labelling. I believe it is important to speak to all sides. However, the Deputy can see from the legislation that we have brought through in regard to alcohol and tobacco that while the lobbies are very powerful, it has not had an impact on our legislation. I also met IBEC on food reformulation.
