Senator Kyne spoke this morning about the investigation, which he welcomed, into issues he has raised consistently for months regarding irregularities in Inland Fisheries Ireland.

Senator Murphy opened today's Order of Business by welcoming the agricultural and food supply chain Bill, which we will debate in this House after Christmas. That will be very welcome. We all know there have been some disingenuous practices with regard to pricing and transparency in the food supply chain over a long number of years. We will get to regulate that and have a proper debate after Christmas. Senator Murphy also welcomed the fodder scheme and the payments that are going to 70,000 farmers this week.
