Ceist:100 Mr. Hyland asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if his attention has been drawn to the efforts of EU Commissioner, Sir Leon Brittan, to initiate a debate leading to a radical reform of the CAP in preparation for the entry of the new countries of Central and Eastern Europe; the steps, if any, he will take with his other EU counterparts to protect the interests of Irish and European farmers by strengthening the MacSharry reform measures; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
