Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I cannot change my amendment but, if the Deputy prefers, I am advised we can revert to the Committee Stage wording, which is to maintain the status quo. Our advice and our view is that the wording in amendment No. 31 strengthens the legal clarity around protections for the Turf Club, the national steeplechase committee and local hunt clubs in terms of any misunderstanding there may be around the role of HRI.
