Under no circumstances are these to be left on straw, hay or any other combustible material switched on or off as these remain hot for some time after use). 18 CONDUCT OF EXHIBITORS AND THEIR STAFF Exhibitors will be held responsible for the behaviour of their staff and for the consequences of any misconduct of such staff. Any fine imposed upon an Exhibitor or a person employed by them, for infringing the Regulations or disobedience to the orders of the Officials or Stewards shall be recoverable from the Exhibitor as a debt due to the HAS. Until such fine is paid, such Exhibitor shall be debarred from exhibiting at any future Show organised by the HAS. 19 ANIMAL HEALTH, WELFARE AND MALPRACTISE The Animal Welfare Act (2006) requires all responsible persons to provide a duty of care to the animals regardless to location. Instances of compromised animal welfare or evidence of unnecessary 10


animal suffering should be reported immediately to show officials. The HAS and associated Show Veterinary Officers reserve the right to summon animal health officials if deemed necessary. Every Exhibitor of Livestock or Horses shall be liable to pay the HAS a sum not exceeding £100 and for liquidated damages, if any animal sent for exhibition is, in the opinion of any of the Show Veterinary Officers, affected with any contagious or infectious disease including ringworm, or with any form of disease likely to prove dangerous or detrimental to other animals and for each and every such case, if more than one. The aforesaid animal(s) will be disqualified and subject to movement restrictions must be removed immediately from the Showground. The Society will not tolerate the administration to show exhibits (entered either for competition or sale/demonstration) of tranquillisers or other drugs which may in any way affect the performance of the animal in question to have the effect of making it behave in the show ring in a manner which is not natural. The Society reserves the right to take any necessary samples. Any Person or Exhibitor (or his representative) who is found to have administered or permitted the administration of any such tranquilliser or drugs to any Show exhibit will be reported to the Organising Committee, and dealt with at their discretion. In addition the matter will be referred to the appropriate Breed Society or Organisation. Any artificial contrivance or device of any description found on or proved to have been used on an animal at any time whilst that animal is in the Showground, either for preventing the flow of milk or for any other improper purpose, will disqualify that animal from being awarded a prize, and any prize awarded prior to discovery will be forfeited. The Instigator or the Owner of the said animal may be prohibited from again entering stock for any of the Society’s Shows, for such period as the Committee may see fit. For the purpose of this Regulation, the term ‘improper practice’ shall be held to include setting of teats, and generally any other practice including tampering or of their own or any other animal by the exhibitor or any other person which results in the animals being shown other than in a natural state, and the Society reserves the right to have all animals inspected by the Society’s Veterinary Officers, either prior to, during, or after judging. 20 VETERINARY CHARGES Exhibitors are liable for any costs incurred should treatment be required from the Show Veterinary Officers. It is also a condition of entry that the Show Veterinary Officers may on their own authority give any emergency treatment as they consider appropriate in the event that the owner or their representative cannot be located. 21 SUBSTITUTION OF JUDGES The HAS reserves the right to substitute other Judges for those printed in the Schedule or to make additional appointments, both without notice. 22 JUDGES’ AWARDS No person but the Stewards and authorised Officials shall enter any of the rings or have any communication with the Judges during the time judging is taking place. All Exhibitors or their staff acting in opposition to this rule shall forfeit such prizes as may be awarded to their exhibits. The Judges are instructed to withhold any prizes where the entry is not of sufficient merit. In all cases where the prizes are offered conditionally, they may be withheld until the Exhibitor has proved to the satisfaction of the HAS that the conditions have been complied with. 23 SHOW RADIUS For the purpose of local Exhibitors competing for Special Prizes, the Show Radius will include the whole of the County of Hertfordshire and the area within five miles beyond the County Boundary shown on the Ordnance Survey Map. It is essential that the full postal address of the Exhibitor be given on the entry forms. The HAS reserves the right to decide whether an Exhibitor comes within the Show Radius or not.

24 ROSETTES AND PRIZE MONEY Rosettes are not to be displayed during judging. Rosettes are given with prize money awards, though additional rosettes may be awarded at the Judges’ discretion. The prize money shown for each class is the maximum. Unless otherwise stated the award of 4th and 5th prizes is subject to a minimum of 8 and 10 entries catalogued respectively. Unless otherwise stated prize money will be sent by cheque within six weeks of the Show. In the event of a class being divided, prize money will be awarded according to the number of entries forward in each sub-section. Prize-winners must present their cheques by 31st August 2014 after which date payment will be stopped and the prize money forfeited. 25 CUPS AND TROPHIES All Cups and Trophies are the property of or in the safe keeping of the HAS. Trophy winners may hold their respective Cup or Trophy and will be contacted after the Show regarding arrangements for their collection/delivery on the understanding that they must be returned by 31st March 2015. 26 PROTESTS AND OBJECTIONS Any Exhibitor at the Show feeling aggrieved with reference to any Livestock or Horses exhibited at this Show must lodge any protest or objection in writing to the Secretary within 24 hours of the end of Judging of the class or the alleged incident and pay a deposit of £30. Joint protests will only be accepted if accompanied by a deposit from each individual who is lodging a complaint. The protest will be considered and investigated by a panel appointed by the HAS, whose decision shall be final and from which there shall be no appeal. If the protest is not substantiated, the deposit will be forfeited. 27 ALTERATION OF AWARDS In case of any protest or otherwise, whereby any prize animal becomes disqualified, the winner of the next succeeding prize in that class shall take the prize that has been awarded to such disqualified animal. All other prize winners will then move up the order. 28 PENALTIES An infringement of any of these or any other prescribed Regulations or Conditions will subject the Exhibitor to the forfeiture of any prize to which they may be entitled (in addition to all other consequences attaching to such infringement). The HAS reserves to itself the right to inform other organisations of any decision it may come to concerning an Exhibitor. 29 HEALTH AND SAFETY Exhibitors are reminded that they must conform to the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and other relevant Health and Safety legislation. The Organisers of this Show have taken reasonable precautions to ensure the Health and Safety of everyone present. For these measures to be effective, all exhibitors, their staff and families must take all reasonable precautions to avoid and prevent accidents occurring and must co-operate with the instructions of HAS Organisers, Officials, Stewards or appropriate Authorities. Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times and are not permitted in any marquees containing animals or food. 30 LIABILITY AND INSURANCE Save for the death or personal injury caused by the proven negligence of the HAS, its Officers, Staff or Agents, the HAS will not be responsible for death, injury, disease, damage, theft or loss caused to any Exhibitor or to his or her staff or agent or to any animal, article, plant, vehicle, machinery or thing of whatever nature brought onto the HAS’s premises by the said Exhibitor from whatever cause the death, injury, disease, damage, theft or loss arises. Save as aforesaid the Exhibitor shall indemnify the HAS against all claims, damages and expenses whatsoever in any way arising out of the presence of the Exhibitor, his staff, agents, exhibits, vehicles or equipment on the HAS’s premises and shall assume full responsibility therefore. The owner of any animal which shall cause or occasion any damage or injury whatever shall indemnify and hold harmless HAS from and against all legal proceedings, actions, expenses, costs, claims, demands or damages. It is the responsibility of the Exhibitor to affect adequate and appropriate insurance cover to include fire, risk to property together with a recommended minimum of £5,000,000 Public Liability Insurance. Acceptance of the foregoing conditions shall be a condition of entry. 12


31 CANCELLATION STATEMENT In the event of the Show being postponed, cancelled, abandoned or curtailed due to circumstances beyond the control of the HAS (ie extreme weather, security alerts) no entry or stall fees will be repaid and the HAS will have no liability for expenses, consequential loss or damage suffered by Exhibitors or their representatives as a result of this action. 32 ONLINE ENTRIES AND CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS Entries submitted online over the internet are subject to an initial ‘cooling off period’ of seven working days during which you have the right to cancel. We add a commission charge of 3% for all payments made by credit cards. 33 INTERPRETATION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS The HAS reserves to itself the sole and absolute right to interpret these or any other prescribed Terms, Conditions and Regulations and to settle finally and determine all or any matters, questions, or differences in regard thereto, or otherwise arising out of or connected with or incident to the Show. 34 RIGHT TO AMEND CONDITIONS The HAS reserves the right to amend these Terms, Conditions and Regulations at its discretion.
