The NSW government has approved a six-month extension to the state's greyhound racing inquiry to consider mountains of evidence.
The special Commission of Inquiry was established in March this year after the ABC aired footage of live animals being used on greyhound lures in NSW, Victoria and Queensland.
Commissioner Michael McHugh's findings were due in September but on Thursday he was allowed until March next year to trawl through the evidence.
The inquiry is investigating and reporting on the industry's governance, integrity and treatment of animals.
Mr McHugh has been presented with 30,000 documents and 115 hours of video with additional private and public hearings expected.
Racing minister Troy Grant says the extension means no stone will be left unturned.
But Animal Liberation NSW believe swift action needs to be taken.
"You would hope it's been delayed because there has been so much evidence coming forward," campaign director Emma Hurst told AAP.
"Hopefully it's not just smoke and mirrors and I guess we won't know until we see the findings."
