I move amendment No. 37:

In page 82, line 35, to delete “€50 million” and substitute “€10 million”.
A large representative group, the IFA, made representations to all the political parties. The idea was that many of the products in the fresh produce sector would not come into the remit of the particular floor the Government had envisaged resulting in the necessity to substitute €10 million for €50 million for the annual turnover figure. This makes sense, as especially in an Irish context it would be more protective of different organisations.
