British supermarket chain Asda has withdrawn a beef bolognese sauce after tests revealed the presence of horse DNA.
Irish food company Greencore has confirmed it supplied the sauce to Asda.
The company says the sauce contained meat that was supplied by the ABP Food Group's Nenagh plant in County Tipperary.
ABP says it never knowingly purchased or processed equine meat.
It comes as three men were arrested in Wales by officers investigating the horse meat scandal last night on suspicion of fraud offenses.
Greencore have said that they are complying with suppliers and testers to get to the bottom of the contamination.
Matt Dempsey, Editor of the Irish Farmers Journal, doesn't believe this reflects badly on the Minister:
