Dog Breeding Establishments Bill 2009 [Seanad]: Committee and Remaining Stages
2:00 pm
Joe Carey (Clare, Fine Gael)
I again ask the Minister to be clear on what he seeks. He should indicate to Members what he intends to do with the greyhound industry. I refer to his remarks to the effect that he considers microchipping to be better than tattooing. Were the greyhound industry to be taken out of this, as the Minister has stated it will be, he would not have a view on the greyhound industry. Consequently, he should inform Members what would be acceptable to him in respect of the greyhound industry. What material differences will he agree to have incorporated into the 1958 Act?
