Written answers

Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht

I am aware of the reports of National Parks and Wildlife Service officers of my Department in relation to coursing meetings monitored this year.  All issues arising from such reports will be reviewed and considered in the context of licences for the 2018/19 coursing season.
