I welcome Teagasc and the IFA. I am a client of Teagasc and a member of the IFA. For those of us who are neither, how do we get to those organisations? They are both doing great work and providing great information for their membership and clients. The vulnerable person out there is most likely someone who is not a member of an organisation, not going to IFA meetings and will not be a client of Teagasc. How do the witnesses propose we get to the people who are not engaging? The person who has the issue, who will need to engage, is the very one who is not going to engage. How do we get to the people who are not members, clients or whatever?
