Mr. Mark Redmond:

We believe so, although I am conscious that agriculture is a very broad agenda. Currently, Ireland produces enough food for 30 million people, and we understand that rate will double in 20 years. The export opportunities are therefore superb. Ireland has a quality reputation, and the Chairman mentioned Irish beef, which is grass-fed, and we also have an outstanding reputation for dairy products in the US market. There is tremendous opportunity, although we are not naïve about the scale of the US agricultural machine. With Ireland's reputation for quality, there is a super opportunity. The European negotiators have been very clear from the word go that hormoned beef is off the agenda in these talks.
