Recall of Irish Pork and Bacon Products: Statements
5:00 pm
Willie Penrose (Longford-Westmeath, Labour)
I have two brief questions. How does the Government plan to dispose of the thousands of tonnes of contaminated products being returned in containers from abroad and the contaminated products in cold stores here? Second, is it time to consider a food supremo who will pull together all responsibilities of the multifarious number of agencies currently involved under the one person who would answer all questions and be responsible to the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food or preferably to the Department of the Taoiseach?
