Coursing is regulated under the Greyhound Industry Act, 1958, chiefly by the Irish Coursing Club (ICC), subject to the general control and direction of Rásaíocht Con Éireann (RCÉ).  Hare coursing is managed and regulated by the Irish Coursing Club (ICC).  The organisation consists of 89 affiliated clubs from Ireland and Northern Ireland, all of whom must abide by the ICC’s rules and regulations. 

Coursing receives no funding from Government or RCÉ. Funding is derived from Stud Book registration fees and the ICC newspaper “The Sporting Press”.
