Martin Ferris (Kerry North, Sinn Fein)

The Deputies who took the time to speak to the pig producers last week will have heard them say they believe they are prohibited from feeding genetically modified feedstuffs to their pigs. They are quite right, in one sense, but I disagree with their position because I am looking at it from a different perspective. When people buy food in shops, in some instances they are buying food that is contaminated because it has been genetically modified. A certain amount of hypocrisy is evident in this instance.
