I thank the Minister for his statement. As he will know, I am a representative of Omagh. This is, obviously, concerning for our poultry farmers and farmers across the constituency, so I am glad to see that swift action has been taken. The Minister mentioned two temporary control zones: one of 3 kilometres and one of 10 kilometres. Diseases do not understand borders, so I am glad that the Minister is working with his counterparts in the South on this. Are the temporary control zones still in effect since Sunday? How long will they be in place?
