I note that in the accounts filed, animal welfare costs account for €364,000, or approximately 2.3% of the board’s expenditure. Given the information in possession of the committee and general public on animal welfare, does Mr. Dollard accept that a figure of 2.3% of overall revenue is deficient, given the board’s statutory responsibility with regard to animal welfare regulatory controls, doping assessments, etc? Will Mr. Dollard outline the current plans, for 2019 and later, to increase that percentage to ensure compliance with the law?
