I will let Senator Boyhan know, it is not guidance. It is our Tipperary way of pointing someone in a different direction. The Chairman and the Senator would know that.

My question may have been answered. There seems to be a very relaxed attitude at departmental level to giving the unfair trading practice directive the teeth it is supposed to have. I do not understand why that is the case although maintaining the status quoseems to be the preferred option by the looks of it. Will the representatives give us the IFA's take on it?
