Horse Sport Ireland receives somewhere between €6 million and €7 million through the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. My query relates to the relocation to Greenogue of a facility. Aspects of this were controversial in that Horse Sport Ireland covers a range of different activities.

Horse Sport Ireland has publicly said it is going ahead with this. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine called for legal review in 2021 of this particular proposal. Can we ask the Department for the terms of reference and what timeline they are working to for that legal review just to get an update on it? It would be very odd if Horse Sport Ireland were to press ahead with this, when the Department had a legal review under way into it. I want to satisfy myself on that. This has not been without controversy. The process around determining the location has been called into question.
