32 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he is considering the legalising of Sunday greyhound racing along with compromise proposals regarding live hare coursing.

147 Mrs. Fennell asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will outline the up-to-date policy regarding hare coursing here.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 32 and 147 together.

At present, I am carrying out a review of all aspects of the Irish greyhound industry in the context of proposed amendments to the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958. Hare coursing and Sunday greyhound racing are included in the review.
