I will come back to my core point. There are two ways that a thorough investigation can be carried out. One is if documentary evidence comes forward, and that can only happen if we have a whistle-blower within the industry. The other option is for the Government, through the offices of the Minister and the Department, to direct the CCPC to carry out a market study and inquire into the sector. Is the Minister of State honestly telling me that he does not have concerns regarding the operation of the offal sector in this country? Every farmer, man and woman, in this country believes that a monopoly is operating in the offal sector. That has a controlling influence on the kill in this country. It is imperative that we have a separate independent inquiry and it should not be dependent on farmers finding evidence.
