I am beginning to wonder whether the Minister does not want to answer my question. Against the backdrop of the revelations of drugs being used in the greyhound industry, what are his thoughts on the continuing absence of proper drug testing protocols in the horse racing industry? Is he concerned about this deficit and what does he intend to do about it? The position is in sharp contrast to the way in which humans involved in sports are tested. As I stated, the question is highly pertinent given scandals in the greyhound industry.
