Financial Statements 2021: Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board

9:30 am

Mr. Gordon Conroy:

There are several points there. The first concerns the review itself. We want it to be conducted as a matter of urgency. As a Department, we have committed to conducting a review of the governance arrangements around the horse and greyhound fund. My opinion is that when we get this review it may feed into our terms of reference in that regard. I also point out that the governance of the IHRB is, in the first instance, provided by HRI.
