Mr. Tomás Bourke:

There is one point I wish to add to Deputy Fitzmaurice’s proposals. It is timely and can happen immediately. We need to announce a ban on all dogs on all hills and commonage grounds because it cannot be policed. We are now at the height of the period when people and walkers walk through our lands and bring dogs with them. We have our campaign. Farmers are having their signs torn down and are being abused. The violence has been referenced already. We need to ban dogs from hills because those are where livestock are kept. It cannot be policed.
