I move amendment No. 31:

In page 13, to delete lines 28 to 30 and substitute the following:

"(2) Subject to subsections (3) and (4) the media rights committee shall consist of not more than 5 members appointed by HRI, one of whom shall be the HRI representative of the body known as the Association of Irish Racehorse Owners and may include members who are not members of HRI.".

I am proposing this amendment to require that one member of the media rights committee, which "may include members who are not members of HRI", will have to be "the HRI representative of the body known as the Association of Irish Racehorse Owners". I think it is in the interests of this legislation that we try to include a representative of racehorse owners on the media rights committee.
