Under LR82 and LR99b of the Greyhound Racing Rules, a person who is under investigation or subject to disciplinary action cannot transfer ownership or trainership of a greyhound. The purpose of the Commission's Greyhound Transfer Policy is to ensure that the rules relating to transfers of a greyhound from a person that is under investigation or subject to disciplinary action are enforced and to protect the welfare of greyhounds that are kept by these participants.

The Policy also outlines how participants can seek an exemption to the rules restricting transfers and how the Commission assesses exemption requests.

Before a greyhound can be transferred from a person under investigation or subject to disciplinary action, an exemption application must be approved by the Commission.

Applications for an exemption must be made in writing and applicants are to provide the following information:

• Details of greyhound to be transferred
• New owner or trainer details
• Reason for seeking an exemption

The Greyhound Transfer Policy can be found here.
