Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 24 March 2021
1956. Deputy Holly Cairns asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the number of racing greyhound pups born in each of the years 2011 to 2020; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14314/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraRásaíocht 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 the question was referred to the body for direct reply. As I understand, that body has already responded to the Deputy.
