Does the Office of Racing Integrity have a record of a complaint from Ms Ainscow relating to potential race-fixing?
Seventeen of the complaints were lodged with ORI before the ABC did the Government's job of investigating Ben Yole.
The Greens have a strong interest in the investigation and findings of the Independent Review in to the harness racing industry.
As you know, harness racing trainer Ben Yole has a very similar business model to the notorious greyhound trainer, Anthony Bullock.
In Question Time Minister Madeleine Ogilvie floundered over more serious questions about racing integrity and animal welfare in the industry.
This morning in parliament we presented some very graphic images that were collected by animal welfare advocates over the past couple of years.
I am sure that until the House is able to fully test confidence in this minister, this issue and this question will not go away.
The House has no confidence in the Premier for the following reason: he has failed to sack his incompetent Minister for Racing.
Yet again, we have the Government giving cover by refusing to allow this debate to proceed beyond the seeking of leave.
