We will close now because there is a second session to start. I earnestly ask the representatives to take on board we have said here today and to take it back to their board. We have had serious lobbying from individuals who are under severe pressure. I fully accept that Ornua is only a third of the problem but perhaps the delegation can go back to the board and see if Ornua could come forward with more financial help for these farmers. It would be greatly appreciated and would enhance the reputation of Ornua even further among members.

I thank the witnesses for coming in today and for the comprehensive briefing they have given us on the fixed milk price situation. We will now suspend the meeting to allow the second set of witnesses to come in.
