Horse and Greyhound Racing Fund Regulations 2025: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2025-11-26
============================================================

Ruth Coppinger (PBP), Dublin West

It is very important that the Minister does not beat the rural-urban drum that he has been trying to beat on every animal welfare issue. We have greyhounds in Dublin, we have foxes in Dublin and we have horses in Dublin, and most of us living in an urban area are a generation away from a rural one anyway. The fact that €100 million is being given to the racehorse and greyhound industry is absolutely scandalous.
