Mr. Barry Lynch:

This is a variation of the question regarding intellectual property. It is very hard to protect IP in software. I do not believe anybody in the State has had to reproduce anything. I would bring this back to functions. Software has functions and provides answers. In the section on page 6 we state the functions we used to provide for farmers some ten or 12 years ago when there was no State software of any kind. That worked extremely well on many commercial farms and we provided a good service. Fast forward to 2009 and these functions are now being provided by the State. It need not necessarily look at our screens and copy them; we would never suggest that anything of that kind is happening. However, the fact is that the State has decided to provide the same function and do the same job. That is the issue.
