Various proposals have been made for ways to combat these problems. One is to resettle surplus population in new lands. The problem is that most of the suitable land is already occupied. Efforts to put people into the rain forests of Brazil and Indonesia have not worked well. The land was not very suitable for conventional farming. Migration to other countries has been used as a safety valve in the past, as in the case of Ireland. There is an ethical question over whether it is right to expect a nation that has kept its population growth rate under control to absorb the surplus from ones that have not.

The Health and Safety Authority (HSA) is responsible for producing, disseminating and enforcing Occupational Exposure Limits in the Republic of Ireland.

In a second risk assessment of AZAs by the Food Safety Authority, Ireland [38], new data on AZAs, both concerning distribution in the sheUflsh, ratios of different AZA analogues, and effect of cooking on AZA levels [39], formed the basis for a reevaluation. According to these estimates, the AZA levels believed to have caused AZP during the Arranmore incidence were between 50.1 pg and 253.3 pg/person.
