Written answers

I understand that the person concerned has instituted legal proceedings against the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, the Attorney General and the Garda Commissioner. The Deputy will be aware that where legal proceedings are live, extant and under judicial consideration, the matter is sub-judice.  Accordingly, it would be inappropriate for me to make any comment on the issues raised by the Deputy.

Question No. 513 answered with Question No. 480.
