Perhaps the Minister of State does not know what is happening in the industry at the moment. Use of frozen semen has no veterinary supervision. That is what is happening at the moment. That is what I want to rectify in this Bill. At the moment, artificial insemination has veterinary supervision but the use of frozen semen has none. The Minister of State is putting in a Bill that is allowing that to continue. I simply cannot understand how the Minister of State can suggest I am narrowing it.
