General Scheme of the Greyhound Industry Bill 2017: Discussion (Resumed)

4:00 pm

Ms Una Jansen:

We would also like to see follow-on checks of people who have negative findings made against them. For example, if one dog tests positive for a substance, the owner's other dogs should also be tested. There should be routine checks on these people for up to two or three years afterwards to ensure they have not reverted back to that behaviour.
