The implementation of the Health (Country of Origin Of Beef) Regulations 2006 (SI 307 of 2006) is a matter for the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI).

My Department is in touch with officials of the FSAI on an ongoing basis and regular meetings are held to discuss a wide range of issues — including the enforcement of food legislation where this is necessary.
