Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Alleged Issues in the Horse Racing Industry: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Denis Egan:

As I said at the start we were pleased we were invited before the committee to put our side of the story out there. I fully endorse everything Mr. Kavanagh said because much of it relates to us. We deal in facts. I am aware from what I have heard today that the committee has been contacted by various people with certain information. We would welcome the committee passing this information to us on an anonymous basis and we will deal with it. We will follow up on anything the committee has. It is in everybody's interests that racing remains as clean as possible. We have heard the views of the trainers' association from Mr. Grassick and Mr. Halford. They are not aware of anything. We are certainly not aware of anything. If the committee has any information we would welcome it. I thank the committee for the opportunity.
