Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
General Scheme of the Veterinary Medicinal Products, Medicated Feed and Fertilisers Regulation Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Daragh Quinn:
Absolutely. We are all aware that cross-Border trade has existed in Ireland for 100 years and will probably continue to do so. However, it does so undercover and it is undocumented. There is a lack of transparency then as regards residues whereby the safety of Irish food and the quality assurance we like to believe stands over all our food products is then diminished.
