Minister urges discretion over greyhound doping scandal

Sports Minister John O’Donoghue today urged all sides in the Bord na gCon dispute not to air details of the controversy in public.

With Tom Dalton, former secretary general of the Department of Justice, probing the controversial sacking of the board’s chief executive Aidan Tynan in the wake of a greyhound doping scandal, the minister called on those closest to the row to remain silent.
