‘Urgent calls for Government intervention as fatalities on Greyhound racetracks soar’

In the wake of three recent fatalities within a single week and the temporary closure of a racing track following a surge in injuries, SAFE is issuing an urgent plea to the Government: immediately implement a ban on Greyhound racing in Aotearoa. Just yesterday, Greyhound Racing New Zealand announced it has temporarily suspended all racing and trialling activities at Auckland’s Manukau Stadium due to a “concerning increase in injuries”.
