I have a suggestion to make. If we write to Mr. Brendan Gleeson, the Secretary General of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, it is likely that he will say it is not a matter for the Department because Horse Sport Ireland is an independent body. However, Deputy Murphy is correct in saying that the bulk of the organisation's funding comes from the Department. We should write to the CEO of Horse Sport Ireland, Mr. Duggan, again and ask him about the length of the lease, how much it will cost, the size of the site, and how much of it is retained and sterilised as a road corridor.
