It is positive that HSI has identified the idea of collaboration. It makes sense in terms of the size, the exposure and the synergies. We would be interested in hearing about that as it progresses. I know this is more of a long-term plan. It is a welcome and a positive one, and I am glad to hear about it.

I wish to touch on building on organisational capabilities.

I know this is Horse Sport Ireland's plan and vision, but every organisation, including the Oireachtas, is building on its organisational capabilities.

To pick out one area, Mr. Duggan has identified the need for support for cultural transformation. That goes to the heart of every organisation. We always need to strive and improve. What does Mr. Duggan mean by that and what progress has Horse Sport Ireland made to date in that area? Can he quantify that cultural transformation? That is what has been set down and identified as a challenge as part of Horse Sport Ireland's strategy. Could Mr. Duggan tease out for us how that is progressing?
