Alleged Issues in the Horse Racing Industry: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Tim Drea:
The number of products we intercept that are being used for doping horses is very small. In fact, in the past, in some of the instances where controlled delivery has been carried out, the prosecution afterwards was on the basis of product found that was not part of the delivery. We have carried out controlled deliveries and the product has not been recovered. This must be done in a careful way on a case-by-case basis.
