I watched the "Prime Time Investigates" programme which looked at many issues related to breeding. We provide taxpayers' money to support greyhound racing as a sport, but what I am hearing from Mr. Dollard is that we cannot really agree on the accuracy of numbers because of a lack of traceability and adequate records. Our job is to hold Mr. Dollard to account for the money given to the greyhound industry by the taxpayer. How much does the industry get from the taxpayer each year?
