Greyhound Racing Ban Imminent

Greyhound racing will be banned "as soon as practically possible", the Welsh government has said in what would be a first for the UK.

Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca-Davies announced plans to wind down the sport, which has been criticised for harming dogs.

No timeline has been announced for the ban, but Irranca-Davies said it is not "impossible" it could come in before the next Welsh Parliament election in May 2026.
