The Minister and the Ministers of State, Deputies Treacy and Aylward, are committed to the future of farming, a future which provides full and part-time farmers with every available option to achieve a viable level of farm household income and to have a sustainable future in agriculture. However, if we are to bring about a positive vision of the agri-food 2010 report, there must be significant action by all players in the industry, from the producers to processors and exporters. When the report was launched, the Minister stated that if appropriate action was not taken in the short term, then more painful changes would be forced on us in the long term. The clock is still ticking. I urge all Members to consider what they can do to contribute to the competitive position of the Irish agri-food sector. The Government's role has been to provide a sustainable environment and a support framework. The extent to which the agri-food 2010 plan of action has been implemented provides a positive testimony to our success in doing so.
