Mr. Arthur Cooper:

The legislation on Horse Racing Ireland contains a reference to authorised racetracks. We have been looking at this issue for the past couple of years and we have brought it to the attention of the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission on the basis of a number of issues, including the reference to authorised racetracks in that is it anti-competitive. Dundalk is a privately owned racetrack and its board is very much in favour of having us there. However, up until the end of September, HRI had the ability, which it exercised, to say it was an authorised racetrack and, therefore, it would not be permit this to happen.
