I have a number of supplementary questions. I will start with Dr. Gaynor's contribution on the frozen semen issue. It is my understanding that the legal advice given to the board from Ross Alyward, Esq, BL as a preliminary opinion in February 2013 did provide that it was for the ICC, and the bord of the IGB, to ensure that the integrity of the industry is maintained and that its laws are complied with. He went on to state:

There is no escaping the need to apply the two year death limit in my view. To fail to do so is only to perpetuate an already existing problem. In essence the bord finds itself where it does. The damage has been done in that the two year limit has not been complied with. Nothing can be done now, in terms of turning back the clock on the issue (one cannot go back retrospectively). However the bord can now seek to ensure that the AI regulations are complied with.

Is that happening now?
