Most livery owners would support licensing scheme

MORE than half of livery yard owners support licensing, a survey has found, which it is hoped would benefit standards, businesses and horse welfare.

SEIB Insurance Brokers and LiveryList carried out the research on yards, which are not subject to regulations.

“More than 60% of 420 respondents – all livery yard owners – feel licensing would encourage more responsible yard ownership,” an SEIB spokesman said.

“A majority understand the need, and the advantages it could have. Concerns focus on costs and paperwork. There is fear that with many yards already struggling, additional costs and time may make their businesses unviable.”
