Text

Minister, I thank you for that extensive response and join others in condemning those who have attacked you personally or your officials. It is unacceptable and needs to be called out. Agricultural shows are welcome opportunities to showcase the industry. They also offer DAERA a useful opportunity to encourage people to enter the sector. Are there any further plans for the Department to expand its offering at those shows?
