The Minister of State conceded that the rest of Europe recognises the IPSC's shooting sport as a legitimate sport. I referred to the position in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. I am not sure the Minister of State's point in retort to what I suggested is relevant to the debate. Those are recognised sports in those countries, including in the United Kingdom.
