Vol. 355 No. 11

Written Answers. - Horse Industry.

471.

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will give details of any proposals for the importation of warm blood stallions for crossing with draught mares in this country; if he will indicate who initiated this proposal; if he is aware of the opposition of the industry to such a development; and in view of this opposition if he will have the decision reversed.

Bord na gCapall are responsible for the development of the non-thoroughbred horse industry. I have been informed, however, that they have no proposals for the importation of warm blood stallions.
