I thank the Minister for his answer. This is a consumer and ethical question, because many consumers would not be happy if they were consuming meat that was slaughtered through halal practices, yet, in Northern Ireland, there is no legal requirement to specifically label meat as halal or even kosher. Will the Minister look into that with a view to changing it?
