This is a learning process for the population. When people heard about the issues in respect of Bord na gCon and greyhounds, certain matters became very obvious. Those involved know all about it. As I keep saying, racing greyhounds comprise only a tiny subset of all the dogs out there. People are concerned about all dogs, not just one category. That is why we are looking to Mr. Gleeson's Department. What is it doing about animal welfare? It is a matter for his Department?
