Motion submitted in the name of Cllr D.Heney:-

“Due to the negative impact that the use of animals in festivals has on the welfare of animals, that Dublin City Council agrees not to allow the use of animals in community events such as for example, was the case at the Rose Festival in St. Anne’s Park and the Summer festival in Stoneybatter this year.

 

(At the Stoneybatter Festival - a Llama was crated in a very small space in the middle of the road for hours, with no obvious access to water; there were piglets at the above mentioned festivals, piglets which were left out under the sun in temperatures of close on 30 degrees. There were goats being brought about on leads by children, in circumstances where the park was crowded with people, dogs etc, (which is a recipe for disaster if a goat was to react negatively in such uncomfortable surroundings for the animal)”.
