I have only a small number of questions. I first want to welcome the Minister and his officials. This is a fund I very much support and welcome. There is a fantastic return for the Government’s investment into the industry.

On the greyhound sector, I am aware that there was an issue a number of years ago about the closure of a number of greyhound tracks around the country and there were some recommendations. I know that our own track in Enniscorthy, which is a private track, is washing its face well financially and is doing a very good job. Not being parochial about this but it is recognised within the greyhound sector that that is the case.

Is the Minister aware of any track closures or what feedback is the Minister getting back from the greyhound industry or board?
