The CPBS is delighted to announce that we have successfully secured funding from the Department of Agriculture to fund 50% of the cost of HWSD testing for Connemara breeders. Following our recent Council meeting all ponies registered this year will be tested for HWSD when being parentage tested. Foal registration kits for members will now cost €75 (including VAT) and foal registration kits for non-members will cost €130 (including VAT). Testing will commence immediately.
