Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

I did not know that. I did not see the Deputy's question. We in the Department do not pay any influencers, apart from ourselves. I imagine that Cheltenham was a huge showcase for Irish bloodstock and for Irish racing. It is a significant promotional opportunity for the Irish sector. It takes place during the week of St. Patrick's Day. It is a hub of international activity and Irish horse racing is right at the centre of it.
