Horse Racing in Ireland and the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board's Anti-doping Programme: Discussion
Ms Cliodhna Guy:
We engage with the HRI. The HRI is allocated the funding so we work very closely with the HRI and, by extension, with the Department on our funding. It is an ongoing relationship. A number of stakeholders must be dealt with out of the same pot. However, the IHRB is very focused on the resources that we need to ensure that we can carry out our job to the best of our abilities. I know that our colleagues in the HRI and, I am sure our colleagues in the Department, will look favourably on further requests but I am conscious of other industries in terms of our budget.
