The greyhound breeders are at the gates of Leinster House today because there is a crisis. This House voted to give €16 million to the Greyhound Breeders Association a couple of weeks ago. We were the only party that voted against that because we saw this crisis coming. This is a crisis that has been ongoing for a long time and we need to ensure that something is done immediately to address it. The greyhound Bill is supposed to be coming before the House. When is it due and will it deal with the matter? We cannot continue with this situation.
