Deal comes back to bite Greyhound Board

The IGB rejected advice regarding a site-filling agreement at its stadium in Limerick, which ultimately cost it €2.4m, says investigative correspondent Conor Ryan

These show IGB rejected the advice of solicitors and engineers who were uneasy about its exposure. The advisers had looked to lock down who was responsible for critical engineering work.
