This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The welfare of horses is protected by the Animal Welfare Act 2006, which makes it an offence to cause unnecessary suffering to any animal. This would include 'soring'.

Decisions about investigating and prosecuting alleged crimes are a matter for the police and Crown Prosecution Service, not the Government or Parliament.

You can also report animal cruelty to the RSPCA: www.rspca.org.uk/utilities/contactus/reportcruelty
