We need to inject some common sense and proportion into what is happening. The European Union has a perfect entitlement to protect its internal market—nobody can deny that—but there has to be proportionality. What we have here is utter nonsense. If people are bringing a second-hand tractor into Northern Ireland, we are back underneath the tractor looking for lumps of soil from Ayrshire. That is what we were doing at the very start of this and we are back doing it again. This is the sort of nonsense that we have to deal with. I hope the Minister will take those points on board.
