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

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. A centralised ID system for horses across the EU was mentioned. That is something our party would support. Will the witnesses expand on that and tell us what practical supports they believe would be needed to get that off the...

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

Réada Cronin: Legislation on carriage horses was not mentioned in the opening statement but it has been something referred to and talked about in the media a lot. Local authorities and county councils do not have any power in that area. Does Ms Doyle want to make a statement on that?

Réada Cronin: Which was before the State was founded.

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

Johnny Mythen: Ms Kenny said My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue has 700 animals and approximately 300 horses. Is it increasing on an annual basis and is My Lovely Horse Animal Rescue overwhelmed by it? What is the main cause for the abandonment of a horse by a person? Is there a running theme?

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

Johnny Mythen: Is it demographic? Is it from a particular region or area or is it all over?

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

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

Johnny Mythen: Obviously I ask a rhetorical question here but Ms Kenny said the organisation received only €54,000 from the Department. It seems to be minuscule compared with a million euro, which is what My Lovely Horse Rescue spends.

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

Johnny Mythen: Could Ms Doyle explain how a horse can be tagged three times? What is the position on that or how is that happening?

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

Johnny Mythen: I suggest, a Leas-Chathaoirligh, that based on suggestions from people here that we write to the Minister and ask him to put an animal welfare representative on the committee. Maybe the Leas-Chathaoirleach could qualify that himself.

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

Johnny Mythen: Yes, I thank the Leas-Chathaoirleach. The witnesses mentioned setting up a Garda unit on this. Have they looked at other countries where this exists and models that have worked?

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

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

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...

Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Ireland's Medium-Term Fiscal and Structural Plan: Irish Fiscal Advisory Council (23 Oct 2024)

On behalf of the committee, I welcome Mr. Seamus Coffey, chairman of the council, and Dr. Eddie Casey, chief economist. It is always great to have them here. We are looking forward to a discussion on the EU's fiscal rules and the State's medium-term fiscal and structural plan, which was published last...
