Animal Justice party’s Georgie Purcell wants scanning technology used on every greyhound, in real time, at every stage of their life
The Victorian parliament will be asked to consider the introduction of a compulsory digital system to track illegally exported greyhounds.
The plight of missing and abused greyhounds will be raised in parliament on Wednesday by the Animal Justice party. A comparison of export data, registration with Greyhound Racing Victoria , and information from China, collected by not-for-profit Free the Hounds, shows the industry does not know where dogs end up as they routinely go missing and are being illegally exported and killed.The MP Georgie Purcell will on Wednesday call on the Victorian government to bring in a “digital system to improve greyhound traceability through an automated whole of life tracking system”.
Every greyhound – even puppies never registered to race – should be tracked, she said. Accurate euthanasia data should be kept, and scanning technology used to track “every registered greyhound in Victoria, in real time, at every stage of their life, including when retired”, she said. The party gave notice on Tuesday in the Victorian parliament that it would move the motion on Wednesday.

‘War’ erupts in Victorian Liberal Party over Moira Deeming expulsionA war has erupted in the Victorian Liberal Party over the expulsion of Moira Deeming after she helped plan a protest advocating for women’s rights, says Sky News host Sharri Markson. “The protest was advocating for the reinstatement of biological sex-based rights and it was protesting transitioning practices used on gender non-conforming and gay minors,” Ms Markson said. “A controversial rally, absolutely, but nothing that you’d think would warrant Deeming being thrown out of the Liberal Party – just for standing up for women's rights.' Ms Markson said around 30 neo-Nazis turned up to the protest and there were Nazi salutes and other propaganda, but Ms Deeming claims she at no point endorsed the neo-Nazis. “Victorian Liberal leader John Pesutto has today released a 15-page letter defending his decision to dump Deeming from the party.”
