By way of clarification, and to conclude my contribution, I am keenly interested in Mr. Collins' proposal. Is he saying that the registration cost of €120 per animal is an encumbrance and is in fact driving some of these horse owners, who are probably not making much of a living out of it, underground?

It would cause problems down the road. I am alarmed at the percentage of animals that are not properly registered. Perhaps the witness might comment briefly on that.
