Agriculture and Food: Statements.

 

Notwithstanding all those challenges, the most immediate and serious challenge facing us is the new round of WTO negotiations. Given the way the Minister, Deputy Walsh, dealt with the Uruguay round, how he dealt with foot and mouth and how he has dealt with the on-going debate over potential change of the Common Agricultural Policy, I have every confidence that he, his Minister of State and the officials of the Department of Agriculture and Food can effectively meet those challenges so that the industry can continue to survive and prosper.
