Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Systems, Governance and Procedures in Horse Racing Ireland: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Brian Kavanagh:

Absolutely. That was the understanding and agreement. I reiterate what I said in response to the Deputy's earlier question, which is that I would not have an intention of staying in a position where I was not wanted or where change would be necessary. In respect of the board making that appointment, it was clearly minuted that there would be no contract at the end of the five years. That has been agreed and as the Deputy said, confirmed in writing. Debates about contracts of indefinite duration and things like that are legal matters. They are not something I am minded to take part in.
