159 Mr. Timmins asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he has agreed a date to lead an IFA-dairy industry delegation to meet Commissioner Fischler; if so, when; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18590/02]
During recent months I have maintained constant contact with Commissioner Fischler in relation to the international downturn in the market for dairy products and have pressed for appropriate action from the Commission to support the market and maintain producer incomes.
