The Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals)(England) Regulations 2018 came into force on 1^st October.

Note the use of the term "activities" as opposed to "establishments" which emphasises that activities such as the online sale of pets are included.

The animal based activities that require licences are as follows:

House Shares/Houses of Multiple Occupation - more need to be registered.

From 1 October 2018, significant changes were made to which HMOs are licensable and minimum room sizes.

A house in multiple occupation is a property rented out by at least 3 people who are not from 1 'household' (i.e. a family) but share facilities like the bathroom and kitchen.

The People's Vote Stall in Grantham was visited on Saturday by Cllr Phil Knowles, a former Candidate for the European Parliament, to offer his support for a People's Vote and to encourage activists to keep up the campaign.

" People voted in or out on referendum day and voted in good faith. Others didn't vote for a variety
of reasons, perhaps by choice, commitments that resulted with them being away from home etc.

Surely it's the correct thing to do to put the final deal or whatever scenario we are faced with at the end of the negotiations to the community in a Peoples Vote.

The community can then decide is it the Deal they want, the deal they expected or the deal they need to secure their future, the future of their family and friends, their jobs and more"

INSPIRATION DAYS

Inspiration Days are friendly and informal events, designed to give different groups in our membership, the opportunity to develop their skills, learn more about becoming active in the party and meet other like-minded members from across the region.

Following feedback received from members across the East Midlands, we are working with the Campaign for Gender Balance to host a FREE to attend "Women's Inspiration Day" - hoping to support women across the Region, with participants from as many constituencies as possible.

Devonshire Rd Closure
