We have discussed and passed legislation in this House last year on the question of competition. That legislation is fine but it is not working. I believe the reason is lack of resources in the Competition Authority. There are only three detective gardaí assigned to the work of the Competition Authority. The authority should have the same resources as CAB. Cartels are driving up prices, fuelling inflation and hurting the country at all levels. Part of the farmers' problem is the food chain and there has not been proper investigation of where the cartels are increasing prices. There are cartels feeding into agriculture and there are cartels coming out the other end and the farming community is in the middle. We are not considering a broad enough picture.
