A NUMBER of updates have been shared by the Connemara Pony Breeders Society (CPBS) this week. In terms of the issuing of passsports for 2023 foals, the committee said the staff have been working hard to get the passports out.

While the target of 90% of passports to be out hasn’t been met as yet, CPBS staff have got 82% of passports out by the end of February. In total 2,632 passports have been issued out of a possible 3,200. There are still just under 400 foal kits to be sent in by breeders, so the committee has asked all breeders to please get these in, so they don’t clash with 2024 foal passports.
