Industry updates / What have the GIPAC been up to?

In 2020, the Commission established a new advisory council, GWIC Industry Participants Advisory Council (GIPAC), to allow industry participants to provide greater input into its work.

The primary objective of the Council is to enhance the Commission’s engagement and collaboration with industry participants, experts and stakeholders in the early stages of developing policies and regulations.

The GIPAC's role is to:

  • Provide advice to the Commission in relation to the likely impact on the greyhound industry of regulatory and operational policies it has under consideration;
  • Provide advice to the Commission in relation to the likely impact of changes to rules, policies and programs under consideration and the effectiveness of its delivery of services to the industry ; and
  • Ensure the industry has early engagement in relation to policy and rule changes.

The GIPAC meet monthly with the minutes of their meetings now published to the GIPAC webpage along with their 2021-22 Work Plan.
