The outcome of the deliberations in Brussels on the pork industry is very welcome. The Cathaoirleach will be glad to know the Rosderra plant in his home constituency of Edenderry will re-open within the next three hours. The €180 million rescue plan is very welcome indeed. Decisive action by a decisive Government is welcome too. I also wish to commend the work of the Green Party Minister of State, Deputy Trevor Sargent, in this regard. It is good to have the support of the Green Party, which has been a great help. Following yesterday's Order of Business, I met with the Oireachtas restaurant manager, Mr. Don Rice, to discuss the matter. I want to see the big breakfast on the menu tomorrow morning, including bacon, sausages and black and white pudding. I want to see everybody there and I hope they will come.
