Sports Funding.
1:00 pm
Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)
I am not suggesting the Deputy is but that is where the complexity of the issue arises. Clearly, we want to do something that will work, which is our primary objective, and that will increase the tax revenue accruing to the State in order that we can make sure that the horse and greyhound fund, effectively, is entirely funded from the industries. That, essentially, is the Deputy's point, namely, that we cannot continue to use revenue accrued from taxpayers to fund the horse and greyhound industries.
