Food Ombudsman to operate 'within existing failing frameworks'

May 27, 2021 12:54 pm
The impending National Food Ombudsman will operate “within existing failing frameworks”, according to Cork South-West TD Holly Cairns.
There have been numerous calls for a beef regulator “with teeth”, along with concerns by many that the Food Ombudsman will not give enough sectoral focus to address issues in the beef industry.
Yesterday (Wednesday, May 26), deputy Carol Nolan and her independent rural TD colleagues brought forward the Independent Beef Regulator private members motion.
The motion seeks for the government to “accept that existing regulatory and competition protections have proven themselves to be manifestly inadequate”, among other things.
Also yesterday, the public consultation on the primary legislation needed to establish a new Office of a National Food Ombudsman or regulator closed.
