Everything belonging to greyhounds queensland will go into the three codes. It would be a good idea to transfer assets now before they lose it for a small percentage. The clubs should run their tracks and clubhouse's etc if standing alone is Greyhounds queensland's aim.
No Con im not joking, am moving this weekend to a secret hideaway.

Courtesy Greyhounds Queensland website
Logan first stage 19 March, 2010.
GREYHOUNDS Queensland today lodged with Logan City Council the development application for the racing complex at Cronulla Park.
Logan deputy mayor Russell Lutton welcomed GQL general manager Darren Beavis as he made the application to the Council.
Lutton said Council is ecstatic about greyhound racing's ultimate move to Logan.
"I get stopped in the street every day by people who cannot wait for greyhound racing to be up and running in Logan," said Lutton.
It is expected approval will be made within three months and GQL hopes the first soil will be turned by sometime in July.

In one word......ENORMOUS, and also important is that the area has the potential to attract large crowds.....as long as the food is decent and well priced to compete with the Clubs in the area.

Also on the website re amendments to rules
LR24 (3) Registrations that may be issued by the controlling body are-
Owner - permitting the holder to own a greyhound.
Partnership - permitting the persons (2-4) to own a greyhound
Syndicate - permitting the persons (5-19) to own a greyhound
Greyhounds Queensland may register a person as an owner, which will then permit this person to own a greyhound. Does this mean all adopted greyhound owners have to be licenced.

Only if they want to race them or breed with them lol.
Those new rules were adopted by all States at the recent Greyhounds Australasia conference. I'm suprised that Qld was the only State who had it right with the syndicate limit of 19 members, I believe that for 20 or more you require properly drawn up legal documents, something brought in due to the high amounts paid for thoroughbred shares. Someone else may know more about it.

thats right sue i did a lot of searching for the proper rules when i started syndicates and i thought it strange that some states didnt adopt the proper rules, think the bundy fiasco made them all sit down and look at them properly

Dan grab your Rule Book and read page 50, LR24 to LR26.
And in the Definitions at the beginning of the Rule Book -
owner means any person who has a legal or equitable interest in a greyhound, including a lessee with the interest being registered/recorded with the Controlling Body.

Sue my book is at the other house and looking at the downloaded rules here, there is no page 50. The rules you have with you, do they say adopted greyhound owners must be licenced. The definition re owner does not state licenced, just someone with an interest.

EXTERNAL LINK Then search for LR24 and you'll find it.
LR = Local Rule.

Ok, back to my original question although i will change it slightly. If you have a greyhound and you hold its certificate with you in your name, are you required to hold a licence. If so, paste the rule that states this.

Didn't I answer that earlier? No they don't have to become a licencee because they would not be racing or breeding, the dog would be a pet.

Sue can you tell me what licence is required to breed. Is it a breeders licence, or brood bitch licence? Or do you just have to give notice of an insemination or service, litter whelping to earbranding?

Dan, wouldn't it be easier to just ask the QLD authority, then you have it from the horses mouth?
