Joking aside, I am interested to know how many cases have ended up with An Garda Síochána. If class A drugs are being fed to greyhounds, surely the Garda should be involved. If the force is not involved, why is that the case?

The Minister does not have direct control of the governance of the Irish Greyhound Board. The board is answerable to the Minister. I would appreciate answers to some of the questions, if not today perhaps in writing over the coming days. I would be quite happy to wait. There is no urgency. I would certainly like answers to some of the questions before Report Stage, which I presume will be next week.
