Individuals and organisations can report breaches of the Wildlife Acts to my Department either by contacting their local conservation ranger of the National Parks and Wildlife Service of my Department or by emailing reports to nature.conservation @ahg.gov.ie. In relation to breaches of the licences issued by my Department to the Irish Coursing Club to capture and tag hares for coursing meetings, I published reports in recent months, which are available on the Department’s website, relating to incidents involving coursing meetings held during the 2015/16 season at Loughrea, Co. Galway, Rathdowney, Co Laois and Ballingar, Co.Offaly.
