Go raibh maith agat. I have a couple of questions and a bit of expansion on the opening statement. In the current circumstances under which the CCMA works, how does it find that it is answerable to the Department of housing and local government, yet when there is an issue with a horse or animal, it will invariably end up with the Department of agriculture? Council vets will probably be answerable to the Department of agriculture. Is there an issue with the cross-departmental involvement? I find, with a lot of issues, those that will create the most hassle and be the most difficult to resolve are the ones where we are told it is cross-departmental. It is never easy when there is more than one Department involved.
