Question 105: To ask the Minister for Agriculture and Food if she will seek the inclusion of organic farming bodies in the social partnership process; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17408/05]

The organic sector is already well represented in social partnership. Many of the organisations represented on the national steering group for the organic sector are full participants in the partnership process. I do not propose, therefore, to seek the inclusion of the organic farming bodies in the process at this juncture.
