The Olympic rowing organisation in Ireland gets about €600,000 to get its Olympians to the Olympics but, in the budget a fortnight ago, the Minister announced that the greyhound industry would receive €16.8 million, which is absolutely crazy. Will the Leader see what he can do to reduce that funding and give it to the people and athletes? In Ireland, there are about 15% fewer people between the ages of 16 and 19 years of age playing soccer now than three years ago.
