The person in question did not resign willingly. He resigned as a result of the issue being raised in this House and raised continuously with the Department. I find it difficult to comprehend how somebody in a very prominent position on the board of Glanbia, with a milk quota being allocated to Clongowes Wood, was able to use that milk quota without the knowledge of Glanbia, thereby committing these irregularities. When one compares that to the way other farmers have been treated around the country, it stinks to high heaven. Did the Minister say there was a Garda investigation into this matter?
