Order of Business.

Greencore has been referred to by a number of speakers. I support the call for a debate on the issue raised by Senator O'Toole. I have said before that it is both immoral and unjust that Greencore demands the €145 million that was allocated, less 10%. I see no reason to change my mind. The attitude of Greencore is such that it has its own agenda. I am of one mind with Senator O'Toole on that issue. On the issue raised by Senator Bradford, the agreement thereon was reached in principle last December in Brussels. The final legal document will be presented on 20 and 21 February and then we will know where we stand. Most people are aware of that and those who are not should desist from adding to the confusion.
