Independent Ireland rep Ciaran Mullooly says it has to be enforced immediately.
A Midlands MEP is welcoming a European Commission decision to block Brazil from exporting beef to the EU later this year.
Meat from the country is being banned due to the presence of antibiotics in livestock.
The authorities there have until September 3rd to show compliance, after 128 tonnes of beef treated with Oestradiol entered the Irish food system last year.
Independent Ireland rep Ciaran Mullooly says it can't be allowed to happen a second time:
The European Commission is set to block Brazilian beef from entering the EU from September.
It's due to the use of antibiotics in animals, but the country has been given time to rectify the issue.
The news comes just two weeks after the trade parts of the Mercosur agreement took effect.
IFA President Francie Gorman says the ban has to be enacted:
