Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (8 Feb 2023) Michael Fitzmaurice: Yes, but not for a new person who wants to apply.

Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Revised) (8 Feb 2023) Michael Fitzmaurice: With regard to the budget for Teagasc, I presume the Minister will put an emphasis on making sure plenty of research is done.

Is it correct that at Cabinet yesterday, part 1 of the land use, land-use change and forestry, LULUCF, review was brought in to Cabinet? When will we get our eyes on what is in that?

Would the Minister be open to applying a timeline if the regulator wrote to him about cases being X amount of years?

Michael Fitzmaurice: I welcome the crew from Mountbellew and Gerry Connellan from Elphin. We have discussed this Bill at committee and had the different farming organisations in.
