The Racing Disciplinary Board (RDB) was an independent board established by the Queensland Government. Its role was to hear and determine appeals by aggrieved persons against certain decisions (appellable decisions) of a racing control body. The RDB was abolished on 30 June 2016. The RDB was required to complete its consideration of outstanding matters by 31 October 2016.
