Mr. Vincent Roddy:

On that issue, if farmers are supported and are willing to take on board rewetting, we are happy to support that and there is no problem. Obviously, if they are to do that, farmers need certain assurances regarding timeframes and what is involved here. We also need to ensure that if farmers rewet, they will not be cut on the other side, and we have alluded to that. I know the Senator says the science is final on methane but I do not believe it is. We operate off international science. That is our understanding and that is what Teagasc told us.
