Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 February 2023
690. Deputy Brian Leddin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the amount of the estimated €88.2 million given for net incomes generated in the greyhound racing industry, that relates to net incomes generated solely by the industry (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9634/23]
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 report referred to was commissioned by the RCE and therefore the question raised by the Deputy is a matter for RCÉ and the question has been referred to the body for direct reply.
