## Description

Defra has recently undertaken a Post Implementation Review \(PIR\) of the Welfare of Racing Greyhounds Regulations 2010\. The PIR found that there were concerns about conditions at the kennels of those greyhound trainers operating only on the four remaining independent tracks\. However, the PIR also found that there was no supporting evidence as to the scale of the problem at such kennels\. The PIR committed Defra to seeking evidence as to the precise numbers of greyhound trainers operating solely at independent tracks in England and the likely conditions at these kennels\. This evidence will be used to consider whether further regulation is required for these kennels\. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses e-tendering, provided by Bravosolutions\. In order to access the Bravo system you will need to be registered\. Could I therefore request that you register on the Bravo portal for Defra\. If you're already registered on the Bravo portal please check that your registration includes Defra, as you have to specify us in order to correctly receive the tender documents\.
