Bord na gCon 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.

I understand from Bord na gCon that it has been in communication with the individual concerned by means of a decision letter under the Freedom of Information Act 2014, dated 5th October 2016.

Bord na gCon stated in its letter of the 5th October that it did not conduct any formal investigation into the matter as it has been determined by Bord na gCon, following its enquires,  that this is a matter for the Irish Coursing Club (ICC), the employer of the person concerned.
