Shane McEntee (Meath East, Fine Gael)

One would always hope for light at the end of the tunnel but I do not think farmers can take anything for granted. Many farmers have decided to dry up cows and to fatten them. Anyone who has ever received a super levy bill will never get a second one. The Deputy is correct that from 1 January 2012 we should join forces with as many countries as possible to pursue the matter in the interests of production.
