I repeat that the Minister needs to live up to his commitment in relation to the beef data genomics programme. I remind him that the Government has committed to provide €52 million per annum. It is simply not spending that money. Will the Minister provide a timeline for when he will be able to indicate whether this programme will reopen? If it is to reopen, it is crucial that the provision to the beef sector of this minimal but necessary support is not delayed any further.
