Larry Murrin, chairman of Bord Bia, and CEO Jim O'Toole have agreed to appear before the Agriculture Committee next week. The appearance follows a stand-off centring on the importation of Brazilian beef. An Irish Farmers' Association protest has been maintained outside Bord Bia's Dublin offices and entered its fourth day. Murrin stated that dialogue is needed to resolve the stand-off. The sustained protest and planned committee appearance indicate heightened sectoral and political pressure over import policy and industry oversight.
