Bord na gCon is a commercial State body, established under the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958, chiefly to control greyhound racing and to improve and develop the greyhound industry.

The details requested by the Deputy are an operational matter for Bord na gCon.

In line with new Dáil procedures, this information can be requested directly from Bord na gCon using the dedicated email address: oireachtasqueries@igb.ie.  The Deputy’s question has already been passed on by my Department via this mechanism.  Bord na gCon will revert directly.
