The information the Deputy has requested is detailed in the table below.

This table includes the number of live horses traded to the EU and exported to third countries. The information for this table has been generated from the Trade Control and Expert System (TRACES) the European Commission's online platform for sanitary and phytosanitary certification and records of export certification maintained by my Department for third country exports which are managed outside the TRACES system.
