Séamus Brennan (Dublin South, Fianna Fail)

I share the view that this is a major industry, which in many ways is unique to Ireland because of our association with the horse and greyhound industries. Whatever is done, care should be taken to ensure that its success will be enhanced and one should not do anything that would take from it. It has been an enormously successful story for Ireland and is one on which we should build. Nevertheless, this does not detract from the Government's obligation to review constantly legislation, which we also must do in this case.
