TRAVELLING TO IRELAND - RACING UNDER THE SPECIAL AUTHORITY Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Irish Authorities currently require anyone coming into Ireland, apart from Northern Ireland, to self-isolate for 14 days. Passengers arriving to Ireland from overseas are obliged to complete a mandatory Public Health Passenger Locator Form and to submit it to the relevant authority at their port of entry. As trainers will know, the requirement of a Special Authority is that the UK trainer or his/her kennelhand(s) presents the greyhound for trialling/racing in Ireland. However, under the current legal requirements regarding travel, it will not now be possible for trainers/kennelhands to present greyhounds for trials. This unfortunately means that the requirements of Special Authorities cannot be fulfilled. As soon as we are aware of the restriction being lifted or eased we will inform you. For further questions on this, please contact the GBGB team on 0207 822 0925. DATE SET FOR LAUNCH OF THE GREYHOUND RETIREMENT SCHEME The Greyhound Board of Great Britain (GBGB) has announced that its long-awaited Greyhound Retirement Scheme (GRS) will begin on 1st September 2020. The ground- breaking scheme demonstrates the sport’s commitment to responsible greyhound ownership and racing greyhounds for their eventual retirement journey. Under the GRS, owners of any greyhound being registered with the GBGB from 1st September will need to pay a sum of £200. Upon the greyhound’s retirement, GBGB will match this payment and a bond of £400 will be passed to homing kennels, working with GBGB, to assist with the homing process. This bond means that a greyhound’s future retirement is safe and secure before they embark on their racing careers. Owners of all currently registered greyhounds will also be eligible to join the scheme at any point from 1st September, when they pay £200. This will again be matched by the GBGB on the greyhound’s retirement. Whilst many ex-racers do enter homing kennels in order to find their forever homes, there are a number of other options including owners keeping their greyhound as a pet. In this case, the original bond would be returned to the owner. GBGB will provide much more detail as to the workings of the scheme and will publish a series of Q & A’s ahead of September’s launch. The GBGB are in the final stages of appointing a Scheme co-ordinator who will work with homing centres partners, financially administer the scheme and provide advice and support to owners and homing centres. Commenting on the launch, Mark Bird, Managing Director of GBGB, said: “The Greyhound Retirement Scheme has been a long-term ambition for many owners and the GBGB. We had originally planned to launch the scheme in May but, given the challenges presented by COVID-19, we decided to delay its launch. I am therefore very pleased that we are able to launch it by the end of the summer. “The GRS is absolutely the right thing to be doing to support our racing greyhounds beyond their athletic careers. I firmly believe that it further endorses the GBGB’s commitment to welfare and our owners’ commitment and responsibility to their greyhounds both on and off the track.” Greyhound Ambassador Bob Boswell added: “This is an exciting initiative which many greyhound owners have long called for. It secures registration to retirement and beyond support to ensure as many greyhounds as possible find forever homes. This scheme will not only benefit owners but will also support those very committed people working in organisations which care for retired greyhounds. The GBGB has once again shown that the welfare of greyhounds is its top priority and it continues to lead and innovate on all issues relating to welfare.” CALENDAR 1 GREAT ORMOND STREET CHARITY GOLF FUNDRAISER Weds 16th – 17th September 2020, Stapleford Golf Club, Horsemanside, Tysea Hill, Romford, Essex, RM4 1JU Trainer Maurice Newman’s popular Golf Day Fundraiser will once again take place this September at Stapleford Abbots Golf Club, Romford, in aid of Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Fernando Bale was quite rightly judged greyhound of the year and I congratulate all the nominees and winners on the night. Both the Premier, The Hon Daniel Andrews, and the Minister for Racing, The Hon Martin Pakula, also provided strong messages of support on the night for the industry and for the reforms now underway. The Victorian Greyhound Awards was a great showcase of the commitment, passion and hard work of the good people who have driven the sport’s achievements and that will underpin the journey of reform we need to take to secure its long term future.
