The Irish Horse Board (IHB) is a co-operative society made up of individual shareholders and is registered under the Industrial and Provident Societies Act. The IHB is an affiliate of Horse Sport Ireland. However, it is dependent of the Department and therefore the running of their elections is a matter for the organisation itself.
