Horse and Greyhound Racing Fund Regulations 2021: Motion
Seanad Éireann — 2021-12-08
============================================================

Seán Kyne (FG), Cultural and Educational Panel

I can take two minutes. I welcome the Minister. My father, Lord have mercy on him, used to own a few horses in his time. It was more of a hobby than anything, although he had a small bit of success. He loved those horses. He treated them with respect. He got the vets in and talked to them, God knows, and was very much supportive of animal welfare. The majority of horse owners are the same. I support all these sports such as horse and greyhound racing but I want to ensure that everything is done to support animal welfare.
