Fishery Harbour Centres (4 May 2023) Cormac Devlin: ...on a number of the programme headings. In the context of programme A, Mr. Gleeson referred to food safety and animal health and welfare.

Fishery Harbour Centres (4 May 2023) Mr. Brendan Gleeson: -----on the committee at this point. A criticism of the control of dogs through the years is that it is between several posts.
