Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Alleged Issues in the Horse Racing Industry: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Michael Grassick:

We have zero tolerance. The IRTA supports zero tolerance. We all want to operate on a level playing field. We do not want some trainers to have an advantage over others. The IHRB takes a poor view of anybody using illegal substances and trainers have lost their licences as a result.
