A few hundred thousand euro was collected last year by Bord Bia due to calves leaving the country. If that is not able to provide lairage on the Continent, I do not know what kind of money would provide a shed to hold stock. There is plenty of money being paid for the calves leaving the country. It can support infrastructure for them.
