Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland told the Irish Greyhound Board last week that they would not be featuring greyhound racing in any tourism marketing campaigns in Ireland or abroad.
The decision was reached after concerns were raised by Minister for Sport Shane Ross following the RTE Investigates programme into the sport which was broadcast in June.
Tipperary Independent TD Mattie McGrath and Nuala Donlon from Greyhound Action Ireland spoke to Joe Finnegan on Thursday mornings programme.
