Paul Kehoe: It would be great to hear Deputy Ned O'Keeffe giving the agricultural speech at the Fianna Fáil Ard-Fheis this weekend to maybe 3,000 or 4,000 people. He might tell some of the home truths and say what the Minister should be doing. Like Deputy O'Keeffe, I have some doubts about this Bill and many aspects need to be questioned. I hope that Bord Glas is not lost in the merger with Bord Bia and...

If the Minister, Deputy McDowell, was asked to spell "democracy", he would probably spell it backwards...

Despite the Hanly report and the plans the former Minister, Deputy Martin, had for hospitals throughout...

Food Industry. (27 Jan 2005)

Paul Kehoe: Since their appointment to office, have the Minister or either of her two Ministers of State been in contact with the Carlow sugar beet management or with Greencore? I read in the newspapers that the IFA was aware of the forthcoming closure of the Carlow sugar beet factory but I find it unbelievable that the Minister for Agriculture and Food was not made aware of it. Coming from a farming...
