Bord na gCon is the statutory body responsible for the regulation and development of greyhound racing under the Greyhound Act, 1958. Bord na gCon is a body corporate and a separate legal entity to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
The Tote figures for the greyhound industry are contained in its annual accounts which can be found on the Bord na gCon website www.igb.ie.
The 2015 Tote figure is contained in Bord na gCon's 2015 annual report which is not yet available as it is currently subject to audit by the Comptroller and Auditor General. You will have access to this information when these accounts are published.
