asked the Minister for Agriculture whether his Department have completed their re-examination of proposals to tighten up the grading standards for Grade A pigs; and, if so, what are the results of such re-examination.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Grading Standards for Pigs.
39.
I expect to be able to announce to-morrow the changes to be made in pig grading standards.
May I take it that, when the announcement is made, it will not result in a substantial reduction in the price payable for Grade A pigs?
It is better that we should wait until the announcement is made.
I trust that warning note will deter the Minister from any grave folly in this matter.
