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

Martin Kenny (SF), Sligo-Leitrim

The Minister knows this motion was submitted last week, before the committee's decision was made for Larry Murrin to come in. The vote on this motion will not be held until next week. There will be a full week after we hear from Larry Murrin tomorrow to digest what he says, ask further questions and deal with this issue. The Minister and his backbenchers, many of whom, including from his party, have told me privately that they are extremely unhappy with the position the Minister has taken, have a week to decide what way they will vote. I am confident that if they are true to themselves and to the farmers of the country, they will vote to ensure that Larry Murrin is removed from his position.
