Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion

5:00 pm

Mr. Denis Duggan:

In the context of the 2023 passports issued, we are dealing with approximately 200 applications in respect of which we are awaiting information from breeders. They are the last of the 2023 applicants who will be receiving passports. In all of those cases, we are either waiting for a DNA result to come back or for information from the breeder. Every breeder is aware of that.
