Vol. 576 No. 2
132 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the degree to which the traceability procedures he has introduced are operating satisfactorily; if drawbacks have been detected; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29485/03]
I assume that the Deputy is referring to the traceability procedures that have been introduced in respect of cattle, sheep and pigs. I am satisfied that the systems in question are operating satisfactorily and that any drawbacks that have been detected are being addressed in a satisfactory manner.
