The Irish Coursing Club lost its High Court injunction application over a ban on hare coursing on 25 January 2021.

Ms Justice Niamh Hyland said the court could not order the Minister for Health to legislate in prescribed terms. She also found that the balance of convenience and risk of injustice meant the injunction should not be granted, and refused the relief sought.
