I am not aware that the Cahir flour milling company of Going and Smith has been acquired by a larger firm.
With regard to the second part of the question, the Deputy will appreciate that, while I have certain functions under the Agricultural Produce (Cereals) Acts, I am not at any time in a position to ensure that a particular flour mill will remain operational.
