Réada Cronin: I was saying it really highlights the fact it is not enforcement that shows they do not care about making sure they transfer the ownership. That tells its own story.

Will the witnesses expand on that and tell us what practical supports they believe would be needed to get that off the...

Réada Cronin: The last time I attended this committee, the breeders and racecourse owners were before us. I spoke to them about a national retirement fund, and I know this group has also spoken to them about a retirement fund for thoroughbreds. Has My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue had any response from the racing industry or Minister around that?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)
Réada Cronin: Something I was working on after the "RTÉ Investigates" programme into Shannonside Foods Ltd. was a register on animal abusers and people who have been found guilty. The Minister was not keen on it because he said they were reported on in the media and that was enough. It is, however, not something we can rely on. I was heartened by the number of rural TDs, not just urban, who were...

- Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Sinn Féin is not opposing the amendment. However, I must say that a number of the justifications used by the Minister of State in describing the amendment are not factually correct.

The LDA does not have access to over...
