Horse Sport Ireland is approved by my Department, in accordance with the relevant EU and National Zootechnical legislation to manage the Irish Draught Horse studbook, including the issuing of passports for horses of the breed. As the issuing of passports is considered a day-to-day studbook management matter the Deputy should contact Horse Sport Ireland directly for such information.
