I am thinking of the overall breeding perspective and improving and maintaining the standard of Irish horses. I am more familiar with the thoroughbred side of things where the mare physically visits the stallion. I believe in the horse sport industry, one can import straws from foreign stallions. From a strategic perspective and in the interests of promoting Irish-bred horses, is that a good policy? Does the Department have a strategy to promote Irish stallions?
