We have received calls to service in relation to fireworks being set off near to livestock, we are asking that if you are having a display and it is near to livestock you kindly speak to the farmer and advise them of your intentions and times. No firework's should be set off in close proximity to livestock. Animal Welfare ActThe Animal Welfare Act 2006 states it is an offence to cause any unnecessary suffering to any captive or domestic animal. Government advice is – Fireworks must not be set off near livestock or horses in fields or close to buildings housing livestock. Anyone planning a firework display in a rural area should warn neighbouring farmers in advance. |
