Animal Carcase Disposal
Dail Éireann — 2023-12-14
============================================================

Michael McNamara (IND), Clare

Will the Minister promulgate emergency interim measures to allow farmers and knackeries to dispose of dead animals in light of their accumulation, with the resulting risk to sanitation, due to the strike by renderers since 1 December 2023? Will he make a statement on the matter? Perhaps that statement might address whether the concentration of power and ownership in the processing sector is now coming back to bite the Department, as it has been biting primary producers for a very long time.
