Sulky racing: Travellers should have been consulted

An organisation representing the Travelling community has said Travellers should have been consulted before recommendations for new laws on sulky racing were made to the Government, and that funding should be made available to promote the sport.

Pavee Point has also raised concern that some of the recommendations made by the Cork County Joint Policing Committee (JPC) might be too stringent.

The JPC made its recommendations for changes in the law following an infamous sulky race on the main Cork-Mallow road last year.
