The Clare branch of the Irish Farmers Association has slammed the Agriculture Minister who they claim has “completely and utterly ignored” their concerns throughout the Bord Bia controversy. The farming representative organisation has stood down its protest at Bord Bia headquarters following an agreement that a governance review into the matters raised during the dispute will take place. Five IFA members occupied the lobby of Bord Bia's Dublin offices for 28 days while a rolling 24-hour protest took place outside the building for 36 following the revalation that Larry Murrin's company used Brazilian beef in its produce. Feakle-based Chairperson of the IFA in Clare, Stephen Walsh, has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons that farmers fear for their livelihoods if the use of South American meat becomes the norm here.

Members of the Irish Farmers' Association have ended their sit-in protest at Bord Bia, after the State agency's board agreed to an independent expert-led governance review into its operations. Larry Murrin will stand aside from chairing board meetings for the duration of the review.

The Chairperson of the Clare branch of the Irish Farmers Association claims there's a "complete disconnect" between his sector and the Government on the controversy around the head of Bord Bia. The organisation is continuing its rolling protest outside the agency's headquarters in Dublin today as they seek the resignation of Larry Murrin over his firm's use of Brazilian beef in its produce. A Sinn Féin motion calling for Murrin to step down was defeated by 89 votes to 61 last week. Chairperson of the Clare branch of the IFA Stephen Walsh, who's participating in today's demonstration in Dublin, has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons, they're "here to stay".

Whilst heavy rain and winds battered parts of the East coast this week, temperatures rose inside Leinster House.

The RTÉ politics team discusses those beefy exchanges over Bord Bia at the Agriculture Committee, the clamour for flood defences and new scrambler laws soon.

Aengus Cox, RTE Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Correspondent & Aindrias Moynihan, Fianna Fail TD and Chair of the Agriculture Committee

Government found wanting on scrambler law, the blamegame on flooding forecasts and flood defences and will farmers or Goverment prevail in the row over Bord Bia?

The use of imported Brazilian beef by Dawn Farm Foods has sparked anger among Irish farmers, with critics saying it creates a conflict of interest for Bord Bia chair Larry Murrin, whose role is to promote Irish food. Protests are ongoing outside Bord Bia offices, and the issue is now heading to the Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture. Meanwhile, farmers are expressing concern as China closes off its market to Irish beef again, after this week's outbreak of bluetongue. Four herds in County Wexford have now tested positive for the disease as authorities look to limit its spread. China has suspended imports of Irish beef as a result - a decision the Minister for Agriculture has called "disappointing". Joining us now on all of this are Stephen Walsh, Clare County Chair of the IFA, and Joseph Woulfe, Chairman of Beef Plan Movement Clare. Photo (c) Agriland

Aengus Cox, Agriculture and Consumer Affairs correspondent, reports on a protest by members of the Irish Farmers' Association outside the offices of Bord Bia in Dublin against a decision not to remove Bord Bia Chairman Larry Murrin from his role.

Ellen Coyne and Pat Leahy join Jack Horgan-Jones to look back on the week in politics:· This week saw EU-US relations shift as the near-confrontation over Greenland perhaps showed the best way to handle US President Donald Trump's demand to take over the Arctic island. The decision by Trump to withdraw the threat of tariffs against eight European countries opposing his plan for Greenland represents a rare climbdown.· Bord Bia chairman Larrry Murrin faced calls from Sinn Féin and the Irish Farmers' Association for his resignation this week amid a controversy over his company Dawn Farms importing Brazilian beef.· The proposed reforms to the national rent control system due to come into effect on March 1st might be a hard sell for Government due to rent increases and evictions that may arise from the changes.· And former Fianna Fáil senator and MEP Brian Crowley has passed away at the age of 61. A native of Bandon, Co. Cork, topped the poll in every European election he contested – in 1994, 1999, 2004, 2009 and in 2014 – and was a well-liked figure both inside and outside Fianna Fáil.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Emer McLysaght on the joy and hidden challenges of living alone, the disappearance of former New York Giant Sam Beale, and the upcoming Six Nations Championship.Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?
