Horse Racing in Ireland and the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board's Anti-doping Programme: Discussion
Mr. Tim Drea:
Yes. The authorised officer status for IHRB, in terms of animal medicines in these types of equestrian premises, is a plus for us because it gives us additional resources and additional authorised officers on the ground, if we need them. So if we get information that we think is relevant to the IHRB then the IHRB-authorised officers can accompany us. That is an improvement on what existed before.
