On a new driver’s application each driver is to supply the LA with a letter from a veterinary surgeon which clearly states that they have some knowledge of horse care and can identify signs of ill health which could prove harmful to the horse should it be allowed to continue to work.

The maximum hours of working for any horse shall be six (6) hours per day and all horses shall be rested after three (3) hours for at least half an hour, during which time harnesses, shackles, bridles and other such items must be removed from the horse except for a head collar. A sufficient quantity of palatable and fresh food and water shall always be available to all animals. Food and water being contained in a proper bag or receptacle.

I think if any council wants to ensure no horses are used in their manor they draw up rules similar to those that B&H came up with a couple of years ago.

All hail 'localism'

Lichfield plated one about 3 years ago, Private Hire of course

Not legal.

It had a "special events" plate the same as those here who have plated "exec" cars (i.e. the 02 dirty green jaguar xk 2.0d saloon) which can avoid age restrictions by having leather interiors, alloy wheels and a business plan for exec travel and airport transfers........

not sure how you MOT a pony and trap......

If it hasn't got an engine, it can't be licensed as a PH.

It's as simple as that.

not sure what emissions horse s**t comes under tho
