Livestock Exhibitors Disease Control Obligations The health of all animals and people present during the Great Yorkshire Show (GYS) is of paramount importance to the organisers. As such, we would like to remind livestock exhibitors of their responsibilities with respect to the health of their animals. Only fit and healthy animals should be transported to the Show. Any clinical signs of disease, however mild, detected on farm must result in the affected animal(s) remaining at home and not travelling to the GYS. This is the cornerstone on which high levels of Biosecurity can be built at the Show. Once on the Showground, if any animals develop any signs of illness one of the Show Veterinarians should be alerted immediately. If we all ensure only healthy animals arrive at the GYS and if any animal becomes sick at the Show, prompt veterinary care is sought we minimise the risk of: • A Notifiable Disease Outbreak • Zoonotic Infections passing from livestock to people. • Endemic Veterinary Diseases spreading between pens/stalls. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. BEEF CATTLE: READ ME BEFORE YOU COMPLETE YOUR FORM Main Changes for 2021 Tuesday & Wednesday - Dairy Cattle & Commercial Beef Thursday & Friday - Pedigree Beef Entries – close date Tuesday 11 May 2021 – You can enter as many animals as you wish but can only bring animals for which you have booked a stall.

This will impact on stall bookings so please book your stalls early to avoid disappointment. STALLS ARE LIMITED TO 4 PER BREED. If you want your cattle to be stalled next to a specific exhibitor (must be same breed), please write this on your cattle entry form or attach a note to the form – a telephone call to the office is not sufficient.

The Cattle Stalling Plan - This plan is designed to ensure the timely, safe and most efficient movement of animals from the stalls to the showing rings. Please do not move or change exhibitor cards that have been put above stalls as this causes several types of difficulty and much ill-feeling for other exhibitors. Anyone found to have moved cards may be subject to future restrictions. Age of Handlers - handlers in the breed classes MUST BE OVER 14 YEARS OF AGE. Handlers in the young handler classes must be supervised by an experienced adult handler who is able to restrain/control the animal in an emergency – see Reg. 64 Cattle Parade - Exhibitors who parade their prizewinning animals in the cattle parades on Wednesday and Friday of Show will have the chance of winning CASH PRIZES of 1st prize £100 & a 2nd prize of £50 Clipping Crates - Clipping Crates will not be allowed in any of the sheds.

All Staff (permanent, temporary and contracted), Exhibitors, Stewards, Judges and Visitors are required to comply with the Show Health and Safety Policy and any legal obligations placed upon them.

This policy conforms to the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and other relevant legislation. Organisational Responsibilities Operations Manager – Nigel Morgan Facilities Manager – Joe Leahy Show & Trade Stands Coord. – Michelle Mackey Event Safety Officer – Phil Atkinson Show & Trade Stands Officer – Emma Donnelly Livestock & Ents Coord. – Amanda Stoddart-West It is the overall responsibility of the Operations Manager to ensure that the policy is implemented and individual responsibilities are fulfilled so far as is reasonably practicable. The Operations Manager will ensure that all activities under the management and control of the YAS fulfil their statutory requirements with regard to health and safety at the Great Yorkshire Show. The Operations Manager is responsible through effective planning in ensuring that risks involved in work activities and the control measures to minimise these are in place and are communicated through a process of briefings and a guidance booklet so far as is reasonably practicable. The Operations Manager will ensure that the locations under the control of the YAS and used in connection with the GYS are maintained in a safe condition, entrances and exits used for the movement of people, animals and vehicles are safe and without risk so far as is reasonably practicable. The Operations Manager assisted by the Facilities Manager will provide up to date safety information for staff, exhibitors and visitors if individuals are exposed to new or increased risks or are exposed to any substance that may be hazardous to health. The use of all hazardous substances will be supervised by a competent person at all times. The Facilities Manager is responsible for the management of all Facilities Department staff, contractors and activities at the Show.

Livestock Exhibitors The YAS reserves the right to suspend any activity or remove any contractor or exhibitor from the showground if they are considered to be unsafe or in direct contravention of health & safety legislation or Show Regulations.

Any exhibitor who fails to comply with health and safety or fire safety legislation may be liable to enforcement action by Harrogate Borough Council Environmental Health Officers and/or the North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Fire Safety Officer. Exhibitors may be removed from the Show. Livestock and Equine exhibitors are reminded that a show environment can be extremely stressful for their animals and animals with unpredictable temperament or character should not be brought to the Show. Livestock and Equine exhibitors will be responsible for carrying out their own risk assessments for the control, movement and conduct of their animals at all times and in the case of livestock applying reasonable controls to ensure that they do not escape or pose a danger to the public whilst being moved around the Showground for grooming, washing, milking, exercise or during loading and unloading.

Livestock must not be left unattended at any time in public areas whether restrained or otherwise unless in a secure stall and it is the responsibility of the exhibitor to ensure that stalls are secure and livestock cannot escape when they are being viewed by the public. Livestock exhibitors will indemnify the Yorkshire Agricultural Society for any losses suffered as a direct result of their failure to provide competent handlers and/or any negligent act on the part of the handler or owner which is in direct contravention of this policy or the Show Regulations.

This should not be exceeded under any circumstances and due care and consideration should be demonstrated by the drivers of all vehicles when the show is open to the public particularly in crowded public area’s and when livestock and horses are moving or visible. In public area’s if the volume of the public in these areas is so great as to be a hazard or risk to the drivers of mechanical vehicles they should not enter these area’s until it is safe to do so. The safety of the public and workers on foot is of primary consideration at all times regardless of the purpose that the vehicle is being used for. The use of All Terrain and Off Road Utility Vehicles is prohibited on the Showground unless their use has been authorised in advance by the Society.

Risk Assessment A Risk Assessment has been prepared by the Society that identifies potential hazards that could pose a risk during the build-up, breakdown and when the Show is open to the public. A copy of the risk assessment is available on request.

The Risk Assessment is a legal document and will be made available in the event of any subsequent claim or investigation against the YAS or an exhibitor or contractor for negligence or damages arising from any act or incident at the Great Yorkshire Show.

Other Arrangements

The health of all animals and people present during the Great Yorkshire Show (GYS) is of paramount importance to the organisers. As such, we would like to remind livestock exhibitors of their responsibilities with respect to the health of their animals.

Only fit and healthy animals should be transported to the Show. Any clinical signs of disease, however mild, detected on farm must result in the affected animal(s) remaining at home and not travelling to the GYS. This is the cornerstone on which high levels of Biosecurity can be built at the Show. Once on the Showground, if any animals develop any signs of illness one of the Show Veterinarians should be alerted immediately.

If we all ensure only healthy animals arrive at the GYS and if any animal becomes sick at the Show, prompt veterinary care is sought we minimise the risk of;

• A Notifiable Disease Outbreak • Zoonotic Infections passing from livestock to people. • Endemic Veterinary Diseases spreading between pens/stalls.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. COVID‐19 Measures
