FG calls for 'green Ireland' food label

A DISTINCTIVE 'green Ireland' label would provide Irish food products with a brand that consumers world wide would instantly recognise and accept.

That's the view of Fine Gael, which is stepping up its campaign for the adoption of such a label.

Denis Naughten TD, the party's agriculture and food spokesperson, said Ireland has a chance to be internationally branded as a producer of safe, quality food.
