Agri-Food Regulator

An Rialálaí Agraibhia, referred to in later statutory instruments as the Agri-Food Regulator, deals with unfair trading practices in business-to-business relationships in the agricultural and food supply chain. Its statutory functions include price and market analysis and reporting, and enforcement.

The Agricultural and Food Supply Chain Act 2023 established the body and defined those functions. S.I. No. 624/2023 appointed 13 December 2023 as the establishment day.

How to read these figures

These are reported values from published purchase order and payment records — not verified cash paid, and not total spending by this organisation. A row may be a purchase order, a payment, or another reported transaction; the source files often do not say which.

Coverage and quality vary. Some fields are blank, supplier names are free text (the same firm can appear under many labels), and descriptions are inconsistent rather than a controlled taxonomy. An amount alone says nothing about value for money and it may or may not include VAT.

Records are retrieved from each organisation’s published files such as spreadsheets, PDFs, and other formats of uneven quality. Extraction techniques (including automated parsing) can introduce gaps, misreads, or incomplete rows when source layout or quality is poor. Treat the data as a starting point for investigation, not a definitive ledger.
