“Some of these issues can be worked out. And we are working on putting together the final parts of an inquiry to look into the details that have been raised not just in this report in other reports, and we want to make sure that we have a clear pathway going forward that has clear definitions in place about how the sport should be run,” he said.
‘This is not about closing the industry down. It’s about making sure that they can be the best they can be. I don’t apologise for that.’“And we’ve been working are trying to work with the industry to get funds out to improve track safety that has been one of my highest priorities,” he said.
