I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that there are no specific statutory tax incentives for the greyhound racing and breeding industry. Profits from stud greyhound service fees arising before 1 August 2008 were exempt from income tax and corporation tax. The exemption no longer applies to profits or gains arising on or after that date.
