187 Ms McManus asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, further to Question No. 4 of 21 March 2002 on the examination by her officials and their consultations with the Attorney General’s office, if she will report on their findings in relation to the groups of Irish meat plants being controlled by a company (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 187 and 188 together.
As indicated in my response to the House on 5 November 2002, the advice of the Attorney General which was received in this matter did not afford any basis for further action against the person concerned arising from his acceptance, for the purpose of a particular court case, that he controlled the group of Irish meat plants in question.
