Mr. Mark Flanagan:

It does. A small investment in these facilities would go a long way towards clearing up the antisocial behaviour that is going on. It would at least it will make the Garda's life a bit easier. As legislators, the members have done their jobs. For the Garda then, there is a place for these people to go. At the moment, it is said that there is no place for them to go, which leaves the Garda and everybody else in a situation where they are wondering what to do here. If we provide the proper facilities and opportunities for these people, there is no reason they should be engaging any of this antisocial behaviour. They cannot say, "Give us a role, or give us this or that". We have provided them with adequate facilities under the licence of the Irish Harness Racing Association.
