Section 26(2) of the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958, states that the Irish Coursing Club (ICC) is the controlling authority for the breeding and coursing of greyhounds. The 'Irish Greyhound Studbook' is maintained by the Irish Coursing Club.

The matter referred to by the Deputy is an operational matter for the ICC.
