Deputy Paul Murphy: I thank the Minister for taking this Topical Issue matter. We know - and are due to vote on it shortly in this Dáil - that every year, the State gives about €90 million in public funds to the horse and greyhound racing industry. We know that about €70 million of that goes to Horse Racing Ireland, HRI. What is new are the figures. Thanks to an answer to a parliamentary question I tabled, we know how much of that goes to prize money. Some 70% of that €70 million goes to prize money – approximately between €40 million and €45 million.... It is ironic we are having this discussion on the day that the Government launched gambling regulation. Why is the betting duty going to the horse and greyhound racing industry as opposed to tackling problem gambling?
