Clare Daly (Dublin Fingal, Independent) | Oireachtas source

The Minister indicated previously that she agrees with us that there is some merit in considering the issue of microchipping hares at coursing meetings in order to protect them from being illegally traded or trafficked from one coursing event to another. I understand from replies to me that the Minister has asked her Department to examine this issue. Has there been any progress? Would the Minister consider taking submissions from organisations, such as the Irish Council Against Blood Sports?
