Written answers

Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine (Deputy Simon Coveney)

This is a matter for the Dáil which has a wide variety of important business before it. I would however be hopeful that the Bill passes at the earliest possible date and will do what I can to ensure its speedy passage.
