We aren’t the biggest In reality, this was a discussion around the rights and code (yet) but we are nimble, smart and we can move responsibilities Greyhound Racing accepts as part of quickly for new markets.

The vehicle they can have a great racing career and then be great for this discussion was the Hansen Report and the advocates for our industry thereafter.

Some measures are ones that we can implement quickly, and some are See you soon, at the track. ones where we can make interim changes that improve our welfare quickly, while we work towards longer term outcomes. For instance, we will shortly be trialing an anesthetic cream for all branding purposes - we will supply this - and we will also be looking at steps to restrict imported dogs where they have a history of marring or aggressive behaviours.

This coming month I’ll be visiting key clubs CE, GRNZ and participants in our industry to talk with them about how they operate, what they need from us, and what we can do together to make sure that we secure the future of our industry. I’m very positive about Greyhound racing. The new Future Venues Plan process opens up opportunities for us to get new funding and shape our infrastructure for the next 10 years; the Optimise the Calendar project with the Racing Board let’s us explore adding content to an improved racing calendar; and our negotiations over code funding offer us the chance to change how we are funded and incentivise innovation and product exports.
