The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Body (IHRB) is a company limited by guarantee established in 2018 by the Turf Club and the Irish National Hunt Steeplechase CLG (INHSC) to act as the Racing Regulatory Body.
The IHRB has informed my Department that it does not have affiliate organisations.
There are bodies which are recognised to be representative of licensees and stakeholders such as authorised racecourses, racehorse trainers, jockeys, stable staff, etc. with which IHRB consults where appropriate in relation to regulatory and integrity matters. However, these organisations are not affiliated with the IHRB.
