Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 October 2023
485. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine for a breakdown, in tabular form, of the grants paid by Greyhound Racing Ireland to private tracks in 2022; the names of the tracks; the amounts granted; and the purpose of the payments. [42438/23]
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.
