1316. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine whether he has concerns about Greyhound Racing Ireland partnering with a company (details supplied), considering the public funding that GRI is in receipt of, and the unethical practices of the company. [38676/23]
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 is an operational matter for RCÉ and, therefore, the question has been referred to the body for direct reply.
