Amharc ar fhreagraHorse Racing Ireland (HRI) is a commercial State Body responsible for the overall administration, promotion and development of the horse racing industry.
I am aware that the board of HRI gave approval for a new strategic alliance between Tote Ireland and the UK Tote Group (UKTG) for the period 2021-2027.
I have been informed that the governance of Tote Ireland will not change and the Tote will remain 100% owned by HRI.
