A communication was recently received, announcing that an important conference would convene in Limerick on Saturday to address the pressing issue of Swine Fever and its regulations. The conference, seeking to find solutions to prevent the spread of the disease, has extended invitations to representatives from various concerned parties.

During the preliminary discussions, Mr J. M. Slattery highlighted the necessity of strictly enforcing regulations related to swine fever. He emphasized that such measures would help curb the movement of pigs from one county to another, thereby mitigating the risk of further transmission. However, he also cautioned against overly restricting the shipping of pigs from Ireland to England, as it could have significant repercussions for Ireland’s economy.

After deliberation, Mr Jeremiah Slattery was chosen to represent the interests of the attendees at the conference as a delegate. His presence and input are expected to contribute to finding effective and practical strategies to combat swine fever and safeguard both the pig industry and public health. The conference aims to foster cooperation and collabouration among stakeholders to tackle this concerning issue head-on.
