New South Wales will become the first Australian state to ban greyhound racing, the premier Mike Baird announced on Thursday, following an investigation which found systemic industry animal cruelty, including mass greyhound killings and live baiting.

That does suggest that although we see a serious effort on the part of companies to respond to our criticism that there was a systemic problem in industry, nevertheless these three accidents occurred at three major companies".
"While the CMA report noted a limited number of specific examples of potentially confusing practices, it has concluded quite clearly that these problems are not systemic across the industry, as we have always maintained," said Tom Ironside, director of business and regulation at the BRC.
