I urge the Minister of State to provide for a certain period a...

Jackie Cahill: ...of the Border, given a substantial number of our pigs were going north of the Border, they are finding it hard to get these pigs killed.

Post-European Council Meeting: Statements (26 Jan 2022)

Jackie Cahill: ..., those countries are going to feel it the worst. We will have many more people in a starvation situation around the world.

If we could plant a percentage of that designated land over, for example, a three-year window and then do more in the next three-year window, it would go a long way towards meeting our afforestation targets and would also restore the capital value of that land.
