I refer to Ms Eade's targets and issues she will look at. As regards the system used for the cattle around the country, if I want to know where a tag number of an animal is at this minute, the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine can provide that information through the animal identification and movement, AIM, system. In fairness to the Department, it is one of the best systems in the world. Is it a priority for Ms Eade to make sure we have a system, from birth to death, to allow us to know where a horse is at any time, either based on or the same as the AIM system?
