Integrity / Final Disciplinary Action Decisions

A Disciplinary Action Guide is a simple overview of the Commission's disciplinary action process. It includes information on the Commission's regulatory powers, the process that is followed for prohibited substance and conduct matters, information on interim disciplinary action, the Commission's decision-makers and the appeal process.

The Compliance and Enforcement Explanatory Guide provides a comprehensive explanation of how the Commission goes about its regulatory role, including its approach to taking disciplinary action against non-compliance by greyhound racing industry participants.

The Commission has also developed Penalty Guidelines to provide advice to participants about the possible penalties that may be imposed after an offence is proven.

Participants are reminded that anyone dealing with or associating with a disqualified person may be in breach of the Racing Rules and subject to disciplinary action.

A full list of final disciplinary decisions can be found below.

From 1 May 2022, an updated version of the Greyhound Racing Rule came into effect and the numbering of rules has changed. For example, rules relating to prohibited substances are R141 and R142. A rule number index that compares the previous rule numbering to the current rules can be found here.
