Under secondary legislation, the board can request it. We have already set out in an earlier section the need to have a veterinary practitioner on the board. The board can set out measures in secondary legislation in consultation with the forum, if it is deemed necessary, and with the consent of the Minister. Section 26(1)(a) prohibits "persons from engaging in the practice of the artificial insemination of greyhounds except under and in accordance with licences granted by the Board under regulations made under this section". This provides for secondary legislation.
