It is important to understand that the number of inspectors is a key aspect of ensuring food safety, and I do go back to my first statement. We have one of the safest food systems in the world. Inspectors need tools and support to do their jobs. We need to make sure that companies have HACCP programs in place. That is a whole combined approach in terms of ensuring food safety. Inspectors are a very important part, and of course the Agriculture Union represents only some of the inspectors. We have inspectors represented by other unions as well in the agency.
