Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

General Scheme of Horse Racing Ireland (Amendment) Bill 2014: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine

2:50 pm

Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

We can consider the Senator's suggestion. It will clearly be beyond the powers of the race fixtures committee of HRI to determine how some of these international fixtures are co-ordinated. In fact, I think the chief executive of HRI may have been on the radio this morning discussing the same issue and suggesting there needs to be better co-ordination. We can consider whether it is appropriate to put some reference to this in the Bill.
