Art Horses taking part in CNs and CIMs (see Appendix D) in their own country are not required to have such a passport as is mentioned in paragraph 1. All such horses must be properly registered and identifiable by diagram. Unless there is no national requirement for equine influenza vaccination in the host country and in the country of origin all horses must have a valid vaccination certificate. EQUINE INFLUENZA VACCINATION, VET. REGS. APPENDIX VI (except events taking place in NZL & AUS) All horses and ponies for which an FEI Passport, or a National Passport approved by the FEI has been issued, must have the vaccination section endorsed by a veterinarian, stating that it has received two injections for primary vaccination against equine influenza, given no less than 21 days and no more than 92 days apart. In addition, a booster injection must be recorded as having been given within each succeeding 12 months, subsequent to the second injection of the primary vaccination. None of these injections must have been given within the preceding 7 days including the day of the competition or of entry into the competition stables. The above are the minimum requirements for influenza vaccination. Both primary and first and subsequent booster injections should be given according to the manufacturer's instructions which will fall within the stipulation of the FEI ruling. In many cases booster injections are recommended by the manufacturers and by National Veterinary Authorities/Regulatory Authorities at intervals more frequent than 12 months.

All owners and competitors arem personally responsible fordamages to third parties caused by themselves, their employees, their agents or their horses. They are therefore strongly advised to take out a third-party insurance providing full coverage for participation in equestrian at home and aboroad, and to keep the policy up to date EVENT S ORGANISATION - (Art ) The OC reserves the right to modify the schedule in order any matters or matters arising from an omission or due to unforseen cicumstances.

The horses passport, name and nationality of the horses owner must also be included with the results. Whenever possible for the organiser or the NF we would appreciate receiving the results by loppy disk or . STABLE SECURITY/STEWARDING AT INTERNATIONAL EVENTS MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS TO ENSURE IMPLEMENTATION OF VRs ART ACCESS TO STABLE AREA For an optimal stable security, the stables must be completely enclosed within a suitably restrictive perimeter (stable area) which will act both as a deterrent to the admission of unauthorised persons and to the exit of horses. The area must be sufficiently large to allow horses to be evacuated from the stables in an emergency but still remain within the confines of the perimeter. However, several disciplines allow in specific situations a lower level of stable security (see discipline rules). Whenever possible the stable area must include only stables; lorries, caravans, etc., should not be permitted within the area unless specifically needed as accommodation for horses and/or grooms. Access to stables must be limited to those persons indicated in VRs Art It is essential that the official issuing authorised access be a responsible person of seniority within the OC. 2. CONTROL OF ACCESS A control system must operate at all entrance gates so that there is an efficient and reliable method of identifying those who enter and leave the stable area at any time. Extra vigilance must be used in establishing the identity of persons and reasons for entering the stables during the night. 3. STEWARDING OF STABLE AREA At least one stable steward, directly responsible to the Chief Steward, must be present or readily available in the vicinity of the stable area 24 hours a day during the entire duration of the event. He may be assisted by deputies as required. The steward/deputies must regularly patrol the stable area, without establishing any predetermined pattern, to discourage any form of illegal practices or abuses to horses. Any misdemeanours must be reported immediately to the stable steward who must, in turn, report to the Chief Steward. The duty of the stewards is therefore to safeguard the welfare of the horses and to prevent any form of illegal practices. 8

9 4. GROOMS It is appreciated that grooms wish to remain with their horses during the night. Only grooms duly registered with the OC are permitted to do so. The Person Responsible must ensure that his/her grooms, or any other authorised persons with access to his/her horses, are familiar with the security and stewarding procedures operating at the event attended. 5. MOVEMENT THROUGHOUT EVENT GROUNDS Movement of horses between the stables, practice, grazing and main arena must be strictly controlled. The optimum layout for Jumping and Dressage disciplines is attached. It is appreciated that flexibility will be required depending on the requirements of other disciplines. 6. STEWARDING OF PRACTICE ARENA The Chief Steward must ensure that all practice arenas are adequately stewarded all the time that they are officially open. He must also ensure that these arenas are subject to random control when they are officially closed. 7. GRAZING AREA It is recommended that a grazing area be provided at all outdoor events, and that this be subject to random control. If available, horses must only be grazed or walked in hand within this area. The Foreign Judge/TD at events will be specifically asked to check that the relevant requirements are met as reasonably as can be expected, depending on the discipline, and to indicate clearly any shortfalls, following which consideration may be given to altering the category of the event in future. 9

10 THE FEI CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE The Fédération Equestre International (FEI expects all those involved in international equestrian sport to adhere to the FEI s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation. Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the event. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries, euthanasia and retirement. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise. A full copy of this Code can be obtained from the Fédération Equestre Internationale, Avenue Mon- Repos 24, CH-1000, Lausanne 5, Switzerland. Telephone: The Code is available in English & French. The Code is also available on the FEI s website: Approved by the FEI under the conditions, corrections made above. Date Signature Ian Williams Head of Driving and Endurance FEI, Lausanne 10
