Mr. Michael Sheahan:
Pre-slaughter. In any other circumstances when it comes to sheep or cattle slaughter and so on, we do not make a point of going out and examining the feedlots they are coming from before they go for slaughter or whatever. The only time we would do that is if animals arrive in poor condition, which signals there may be a problem at the place of origin. In that case we notify our local office and it makes a point of going out and checking and sometimes they will find there is a problem.
