The relationship between the 1958 Act and the Bill has been mentioned. There is duplication between the two. I cannot understand why the Minister did not take this into consideration, but perhaps he did. There is duplication in the regulation, registration and identification processes.

This is a well run industry. Like the two previous speakers, I come from the south east. As a very young girl I saw how well run coursing was and how the integrity of the industry was protected at all times. The Bill needs to be rethought.
