Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 3 June 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Farriers’ Qualification (European Recognition) Regulations 2008.


Farriers’ Qualification (European Recognition) Regulations 2008

My Lords, I will get an answer to that, because I clearly do not have one off the top of my head. I was told that the answer was grandfather rights, but I do not know how far back that goes. That might apply to foreigners coming in, such as Irish nationals. I do not believe the Irish horse industry is using farriers who damage the horses, but it does not have the same regulatory system that we have—far from it.
