That is good news. Regarding the issuing of horse passports and so on, we found that things were very loosely done compared to what happens in the general livestock industry for cattle and everything like that. Does the Minister know if that has been tightened up? HRI and the IHRB were not able to tell us specifically the number of horses on the island of Ireland at the time or about the movement of horses. There was a very loose composition around that. Does the Minister know if those organisations have taken on any recommendations or if they have tightened up the regulations on the movement of horses on the island of Ireland?
