Written Answers. - Development of the Food Industry.

10.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the role he envisages for the Irish Sugar Company in his plans for the development of the food industry.

The promotion of food processing is central to the Government's plans for the development of Irish agriculture. It is our intention to establish a task force drawn from existing processors, the State services, and other interests, which will attempt to initiate new developments in this area. As an existing food processor Siúicre Éireann will of course have an important role to play in this task force.
