20.01.2022 PETITION ASKING FOR UPGRADE AND REFORM TO HORSE ABATTOIRS IN AUSTRALIA Did you watch the 7.30 report: THE FINAL RACE Were you #OUTRAGED like I was? Then TAKE AC...TION, please sign this petition asking for #upgrade and #reform to horse abattoirs in Australia! Link to petition: https://www.aph.gov.au/petition_list?id=EN1191 Link to watch the 7.30 report: https://www.abc.net.au//the-dark-side-of-the-hors/11614022 PETITION TEXT: The cruelty shown to horses at Merimist Abattoir on the ABC 7.30 report: The Final Race was unacceptable. We are petitioning the House because export abattoirs fall under Federal Government jurisdiction. While there is no excuse for cruelty, a major difficulty was that the abattoir is designed for cattle, not horses. *The footing is not right for horses causing them to fall down and be trampled by those behind. *The overhead walkways are too low causing them to refuse to go forward into the slaughter area. *There are no doors to prevent horses seeing what is happening to the one being killed. *The actions of untrained personnel cause panic in already frightened animals. *The use of the cattle electric prod only exacerbates the problem. PETITION REQUEST: We therefore ask the House to call for the following upgrades and reforms to horse abattoirs: *Horse appropriate status with doors to prevent horses seeing what is happening to the one ahead. Cattle abattoirs are not suitable for horses. *Standards for animal welfare maintained at the highest level and rigorously policed. *Transparency cameras and monitoring by independent inspectors. *Banning of the jigger (electric prod). It is already banned in the horse industry. *Training of personnel in equine behaviour to ensure humane treatment.

20.01.2022 NEW rugs kindly donated to our club for the raffles on 8th March. Unfortunately while in storage they were water damaged. The sponsor is happy for the club to sell the rugs and donate the proceeds to the club. Thank you Mike.

09.01.2022 Toorbul Pony Club would like to thank Moreton Bay Regional Council for the $15,363 grant towards the following projects. Shade Sail out the front of clubhouse Installation of additional rain water tank, plumbing maintenance and drainage works 2 Gates to enclose the arena Repair and replace sleepers around the perimeter of the arena... Install gutter guard on clubhouse and toilet block Without this support and assistance, it would be some time before we could afford these upgrades for the benefit of not only our Club members, but all riders and spectators who attend our competitions. #MBRC #moretonbayregionalcouncil #blueskyplumbingdrainageandgasfitting #richardtotherescue #shadesolutionsqld See more
