Proposed: That this Assembly calls on the Minister of Finance and Personnel, the Executive and the Chancellor of the Exchequer to respond to the current crisis resulting from the outbreak of Foot-and-Mouth Disease by introducing a hardship relief package to reflect the fall in incomes being experienced, not only by farm related businesses but also by businesses in the tourist industry.

Proposed: That this Assembly acknowledges the sacrifices made by, and hardship caused to, farmers, their families and the wider rural community in responding to the Executive's policies and guidance regarding Foot-and-Mouth Disease, and calls on the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development and her Executive colleagues to act to alleviate these difficulties as quickly and imaginatively as possible.

Proposed: That this Assembly approves the Second Report of the Enterprise, Trade and Investment Committee on its inquiry into the Strategy 2010 Report (2/00R) and calls on the Minister of Enterprise, Trade and Investment to implement the recommendations of the Committee at the earliest opportunity.
