Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Conor Mulvihill:

We work with Government and the Dairy Processing Technology Centre jointly with Enterprise Ireland to look at innovation and applying research and development. I know Mr. Crammond and Meat Industry Ireland has a meat technology centre doing something similar. We are very lucky that in the primary dairy industry, there are co-ops. That tradition of working together is there. Now they compete commercially, but they all work together. I do not want to speak for the meat industry but people do try to work together. Maybe Mr. Sheahan wants to take that.
