I understand that the various dairying interests concerned are still actively considering this project but that they have not yet reached final conclusions thereon.
Is it not a fact that Tipperary town was the first place in Ireland to have a spray drying milk powder plant in Ireland?
Part of this conception is that the Dairy Disposal plant would be merged into a new grouping.
I think I am right in saying this was the first place in Ireland in which such a plant was established.
I would not be sure of that. The idea was that it should be merged into the greater development.
That is an admirable thing. I established it.
