Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
General Scheme of the Greyhound Industry Bill 2017: Discussion
4:00 pm
Mr. Brendan Gleeson:
Yes, it is for a breach.
Head 24 is next. This is complex but essentially, there is already a greyhound racing appeals committee. This head provides for the new version of it. It provides the committee with new functions. It abolishes the current control committee by regulation. Essentially, this is doing away with the existing control and appeals committees because we have now established new entities. I do not think there is much more to it.
