Motion Text

That this House notes and welcomes an Independent Review of the Greyhound Industry in Great Britain by Lord Donoughue of Ashton; further notes the review was commissioned in the wake of reports of greyhound welfare issues and is wide-ranging; recognises it is underpinned by an improved welfare policy; and calls on the Government and the sport to work together to embrace and implement the report as soon as possible to improve greyhound welfare both while racing and into retirement as pets.
