Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

General Scheme of the Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Bill 2022: Discussion

Mr. Arnold Dillon:

As the representative body of the retail sector, we have been engaging directly with the interim authority in respect of outreach to our members and doing everything we can. Other associations representing other parts of the supply chain will play a key role in communicating with their members. From the comments made last week, I suspect there will be a need for a much wider campaign in that regard and, potentially, a wider media and communications campaign to make people aware of this new office and of these UTP rules.
