James Bannon (Fine Gael)

I support my colleague's call for a debate on Northern Ireland. A great deal of confusion exists as to where the Government stands on the issue of State security and law and order. This House needs to debate the issue of law and order to find out where the Government stands on it.

I call on the Leader to invite the Minister for Agriculture and Food to the House to debate the issue of inadequate labelling of Irish beef. A recent survey by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland states that a significant amount of beef, chicken and pork labelled Irish is actually produced in South America. We need to address this issue. The Government needs to gets it act together and deal with this matter.
