Food Safety
Dail Éireann — 2024-09-26
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I will also mention the existence previously of so-called horse burgers. Have they been eliminated from the food chain? Is the Minister satisfied that no opportunity exists for anybody to bypass the system? The standards that are applicable here also apply to food imports into this country, particularly from third countries. Is the Minister satisfied that the level of inspection is sufficient to ensure the highest possible standards at all stages?
