Irish Agriculture: Motion
6:00 pm
Dan Boyle (Green Party)
The Opposition is being selective in the motions that are put forward. If motions do not reflect the positive measures for agriculture that are included in the budget then the Opposition is being further dishonest. On those grounds I cannot support tonight's motion. I acknowledge that we must overcome the situation that has resulted from the current state of public finances that is putting a burden on agriculture and the farming industry in particular.
