Mr. Denis Duggan:

I will put some of the marketing supports listed in the table into context. Because it was from 2020 to 2023, it predates the tender decision. We would have provided some of those marketing supports when Horse Sport Ireland was administering that funding on behalf of the Department of agriculture. Those supports and whether to continue them are now a matter for the Irish Horse Board because it now has the tender. In terms of how it is working, there is an onus on all of us to focus on the work we have to do, and the work it has to do. We regularly meet and engage with the Irish Horse Board on aspects of the promotion of our own stud books and the promotion of sport horses and Irish draughts, which we are responsible for, as I believe the Connemara Pony Society, Leisure Horse Ireland and others are responsible for their stud books.
