SHOWJUMPING Ireland took the opportunity at the joint committee meeting on Agriculture, Food and the Marine in Dáil Eireann last Wednesday evening, October 1st, to clear up a suggestion it had not paid a High Performance levy due to Horse Sport Ireland.

Speaking on behalf of SJI was Ronan Corrigan, who said that, at a meeting of the same committee in November 2023, ‘there were statements made that ShowJumping Ireland collects a levy on behalf of Horse Sport Ireland for international affairs, and it was not paid’.
