717. Deputy James O'Connor asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if his Department would consider granting temporary derogations of three to six months length to customers of the Port of Cork to prevent disruption to seasonal goods imports for consignments needing physical inspection due to the current lack of a Border Control Post facility for agricultural checks at the port, as this would give the Port of Cork greater flexibility to encourage importers to use Cork and boost trade while avoiding additional pollutant emissions and increased costs for importers and consumers; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
