Mr. Brendan Gleeson:
We do. It is true the IHRB has exclusive and sole responsibility for the regulation of racing but we have a memorandum of understanding with it on its regulatory issues and doping, for example. We have engaged in training with the IHRB to help it do that. We have authorised its officers so there is a bigger resource available nationally to do this. We are issuing warrant cards at the moment to IHRB officers.
