Dog Breeding Establishments Bill 2009: Committee Stage (Resumed)
11:00 am
Paddy Burke (Fine Gael)
Under section 13, which will give the Minister the power to put in place regulations, will two sets of regulations henceforth apply to greyhound breeders, that is, one from the Irish Greyhound Board and the other under the relevant local authority? Similarly, will there be two sets of inspections? What does the Minister envisage will happen in respect of the 1958 Act under which the Irish Greyhound Board, which is doing a great job, is regulating at present? What will the local authority do following the enactment of this legislation and the imposition of new regulations on them?
