Ms Suzie Carley:

With regard to the remarks of Deputy Penrose, on the International Greyhound Forum and any additional support, we have discussed within the forum Dr. Kelly's point on having a representative from the Department at the meetings. It has been very well received by the members. We would very much welcome a representative from the Department.

We spoke before about the welfare committee and stated the IGB would be appointing a welfare committee and that we could, perhaps, have a representative from the International Greyhound Forum on it so we could make a contribution on our work to the forum at the committee.
