Richard Bruton (Dublin North Central, Fine Gael)

I heard on the news today that the Government has approved a €180 million package to get the pig industry going again. Will there be a Supplementary Estimate for this year to meet the cost of that? How is it intended to fund it, whether from general taxpayers' resources or through a levy on the sector? Will there be an opportunity for the multiple systems failures that have been exposed in this case to be thoroughly investigated, preferably by the Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Fisheries and Food?
