I welcome the board. This is the first time since becoming a member of the Committee of Public Accounts that I have been contacted by so many people with disquiet over the management of the Irish Greyhound Board. In recent days, I have taken more phone calls, from my own constituency and beyond, from ordinary people within the industry - breeders, owners and trainers - to convey how disappointed and worried they are about the situation they find themselves in and the future of greyhound breeding and racing in the country.

What is the make-up of the board? Who appoints it and what way are they appointed? Can we get an explanation of its structure?
