Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 27 May 2026
163. Deputy Shónagh Ní Raghallaigh asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the number of retired greyhounds cared for in Ireland that have not been formally rehomed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40681/26]
View answerRásaíocht Con Éireann (RCÉ) 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. RCÉ is a body corporate and a separate legal entity to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
The question raised by the Deputy is an operational matter for RCÉ and, therefore, the question has been referred to that body for direct reply.
