I thank the Minister of State for that response from the Minister, Deputy McConalogue. I will certainly convey it to those involved in the sector to see whether there is any way of streamlining the processes, not to in any way reduce the compliances that are necessary for food quality, safety and regulations but to make the processing somewhat simpler for those involved. There is a view that there is duplication in what is a very small sector, so I will go back to those involved. I hope there can be agreement or some sort of interaction between the two Departments to see whether we can streamline the process.
