THE RIDING ESTABLISHMENTS ACT, 1964
This Act provides for the licencing and inspection of riding establishments
by the local authority. Licences are granted subject to conditions
attached thereto and inspections are carried out at six-monthly intervals by
authorised veterinary surgeons. Two licences have been granted to local
establishments.
CAMPING SITES
The Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act, 1960, confers on
Local Authorities powers for the control of caravan sites and apart from
improved planning powers it provides for a system of site licencing to be
administered by District Councils.

Site licence conditions require a water carriage system of drainage,
main water supply and fire precautions.
