Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: Thanks Vice Chair. The witnesses are welcome. The committee need to be honest with them on this. If we had an expert in animal welfare, we would be obliged then to have experts in all different things. What the committee has the flexibility to do is bring in experts like the witnesses who have been invited today or to bring in experts who would know the ins and outs of it to give all...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: I will ask whether the witnesses agree with my analysis. Let us say I have a herd number for cattle or sheep. Before I get that, I must have a cattle crush and a proper shed. Is the same thing being applied in the horse industry? There are some places where I wonder whether they have the facilities at all for handling a horse.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Welfare, Treatment and Traceability of Horses: Discussion (Resumed) (23 Oct 2024)

Michael Fitzmaurice: Would it be a good idea to have a check? The witnesses were saying welfare needs to be taken away from the Department of agriculture, but in fairness to the Department, with cattle, sheep and all that, it has regular inspections for different reasons for different schemes. It might be worth liaising with it to see whether this could be checked up on. There is no point in someone who has...

We are in crisis. While out canvassing, I meet parents and we speak about the CDNT in...
