Bord Bia: Motion [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2026-02-04
============================================================

Martin Heydon (FG), Kildare South

That is not surprising. Explaining global food supply chains and contingency planning does not make for good social media clips. It is much easier for them to come in here and roar and shout as Deputy McGuinness is doing about giving a man the sack. Did Sinn Féin make any attempt to seek a briefing from the chair of Bord Bia on this issue before calling for his head? I did not think so; there is silence.
