I welcome the board and compliment them. While we have an issue at hand, the horse racing industry in Ireland is very strong. It is a matter of sentiment for many of the individuals here and the organisations who are represented. That cannot go unsaid. One glove does not fit all. While there is a negative aspect here today and this is the one we need to get to the kernel of, we cannot overlook all the positives. The chairman admits in his statement that this could have been done better and says he takes responsibility for it. If he could wind back the clock, what would he have done differently, if anything, to avoid the situation, the questions being asked today and the negative spotlight being put on this scenario?
