24. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality her views regarding the recent report of the Ward Union blatantly ignoring legislation outlawing the hunting of stags at Clonmahon House in County Meath as confirmed by video evidence and a complaint to Trim Garda station; the measures she will take to ensure that the law is upheld and that her Department is not being undermined by the hunters claiming they accidentally come across stags.

I am informed by the Garda authorities that the matter referred to by the Deputy is currently under investigation by Gardaí at Trim Garda Station and any breaches of legislation which may come to light will be properly pursued. As the matter remains under investigation the Deputy will appreciate that it would not be appropriate for me to make any further comment on the specific issues raised.
