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

Jerry Buttimer (FG), Labour Panel

I will take two minutes and leave the rest to Senator Cummins. I welcome the Minister to this important debate. I wish we had more time. Our horse and greyhound industry is very important to our country, economically and internationally. Ireland is known for how we treat our animals. It is a bit disingenuous of some to come in here and criticise the industry unfairly when they do not understand what has been done in terms of the changes to the greyhound industry, around rehoming and care. The Senators can shake their heads all they want -----
