Follow Kilkenny County Council in making laws to improve equine welfare
Kilkenny has brought in new bye-laws to control horse and sulky racing on public roads, which endangers the horses and other road users equally. The new laws also promote equine welfare.
Kilkenny has brought in new bye-laws to control horse and sulky racing on public roads, which endangers the horses and other road users equally.
The new laws also bring in a number of measures that will help to create a much safer environment for horses. while also making it difficult for people who really don't care about the welfare of the animals to actually own one.
"Any horse on a public road must have a horse license, the horse must be fitted with a bridle, and the animal cannot graze in a public place without written consent from the council."
“If you do have a horse, you must prove that you are the legal occupier of the land you keep it on and you must ensure potable water is constantly available and wholesome and suitable food must be supplied regularly.”

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. You could start a petition outlining what specific law you would like the UK Parliament to pass in relation to horse and sulky racing on public roads.
