The Government has no proposals to ban live hare coursing.
The Greyhound Industry Act, 1958, provides for the control of coursing by the Irish Coursing Club which operates under the general control and direction of Bord na gCon. The club is responsible for enforcing the rules for the proper conduct of coursing meetings and the protection of hares.
