140. To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if her attention has been drawn to findings by wildlife officers that confirm the presence of leverets at a number of hare coursing venues; if her Department will investigate those findings and revoke licences for those venues; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I am aware of the reports of National Parks and Wildlife Service officers of my Department in relation to coursing meetings monitored this year. All issues arising from such reports will be reviewed and considered in the context of licenses for the 2018/19 coursing season.
