466. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 405 of 26 September 2017, if he will clarify the position that, contrary to the implication in the answer given by his Department, the question did not make a reference to an obligation on greyhound owners to either participate in or express an interest in coursing and was rather in regard to his plans to remedy a situation whereby there is an obligation on greyhound owners who wish to race their dogs in track races here to pay a registration fee to an organisation (details supplied), a body which organises and administers a blood sport, regardless of the owners' own views on or objections to coursing; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
