Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 May 2023
626. Deputy Joe Flaherty asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if a stud greyhound (details supplied) is registered accordingly in Greyhound Racing Ireland's RCETS traceability system; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24717/23]
View answerRásaíocht Con Éireann (RCÉ) is a commercial state body, established under the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958 chiefly to control greyhound racing and to improve and develop the greyhound industry. RCÉ is a body corporate and a separate legal entity to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
The question raised by the Deputy in relation to a named greyhound is an operational matter for RCÉ and, therefore, the question has been referred to the body for direct reply.
