134. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a detailed reply will issue to a letter written by this Deputy on 15 April 2015; the reason for the delay with the reply; the length of time he views it as satisfactory for such replies to issue; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Bord na gCon is the commercial State body, established in 1958, under the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958, chiefly to control greyhound racing and to improve and develop the greyhound industry.

I regard it as important that representations are replied to as quickly as possible.

I am advised by Bord na gCon that a sub-committee has been established to examine the matter involved. My Department has been in contact with Bord na gCon requesting a progress report on the matter and I will revert to the Deputy as soon as that report has been received.
