John Carty (Fianna Fail)

I welcome the Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, Deputy Trevor Sargent, to the House. I readily agree with the opening remarks of my fellow county man, Senator Paddy Burke. He referred to what people in County Mayo were obliged to do in the bogs and the hay field. I assure the Minister of State that there was never food cooked or put on a table such as that which we got in the bog. It had a flavour all of its own.
