How many complaints did the Department actually get from those ladies or from anybody else? I am sure Mr Sheahan knows that answer. How many complaints were received about that particular slaughtering plant and the difficulties that were happening? If these ladies knew there was something happening, surely when the Department vets who were actually there were told something was happening, surely to God they started looking around to see if there was something in those complaints. If RTÉ could do what they did, why could the Department not have investigated more thoroughly?
