Mr. Denis Duggan:

I thank An Cathaoirleach Gníomhach for the clarification. In the context of the 20,000 documents I mentioned in response to Deputy Kerrane, about 8,000 involve changes of ownership and so on, so we are talking about 12,000 foal passports or what we call adult registration where a breeder does not register the foal but comes along to register an adult horse. We can provide the committee with the exact figure afterwards but from memory, I think in the order of about 600 of the 12,000 were ID documents or white books. I will bring the director of breeding in on this. She will explain in greater detail the difference between the green book and the white book.
