Part 1 of the Regulations designates the management of greyhound tracks for the purposes of section 13(1) of the Animal Welfare Act 2006 (2006 c.45). The consequence of this designation is that all operators of greyhound racing tracks must obtain a licence, in this case from their local authority, before allowing greyhounds to race or trial on their track. However, Part 1 exempts those track operators who are both regulated by a body accredited by United Kingdom Accreditation Service (or EU equivalent) and who meet the conditions set out in the Schedule.

Part 2 of the Regulations makes provisions for the granting and renewing of the licence by local authorities and the charging of fees to cover any reasonable expenses incurred in performing this function and for monitoring compliance with these Regulations.

Part 3 provides for the suspension and revocation of the licence if the conditions in the Schedule are breached and for appeals.
