Jack Wall (Kildare South, Labour)

Has a door been left open since the meetings between the Minister and the Northern Ireland Minister? The Minister pointed out the problems that existed for horseracing, with responsibility being delegated across different Departments. The Minister also said that if the Executive reconvenes, then something can be done. Must we await further developments before the Minister in Northern Ireland gets back to the Minister here? Do we have to accept that no further progress will be made in the foreseeable future?
