67: Change of racing dates, allocations, or conditions

You could also call this:

“The dates committee can change racing schedules if TAB NZ and racing codes can't agree”

If there’s no agreement between TAB NZ and the racing codes about changing racing dates, the dates committee can make changes. They can add, change, or cancel racing dates, change which clubs get certain dates, or change the rules about those dates. They can do this at any time before or during a racing year. Before making any changes, the dates committee must talk to all the racing codes that would be affected by the change. This only applies when there isn’t already an agreement in place about how to make these changes.
