Peadar Tóibín: I want to mention a tangential issue, namely, the crisis affecting nursing homes at present. The Ministers of State will be aware that nursing homes are closing right across the country and that many are blaming what they call fair deal discrimination.

Peadar Tóibín: The figures in the Farming Independentsupplement of the Irish Independentshowing that 200,000 cattle are to be culled by 2025, which is just in a year and a half, points to an incredible threat to the farming sector.
