The court hearing was on the Doncaster Culture and Leisure Trust breaching their contract with the IHS. They basically said "either no animals are sold, or you won't be having a show". Court ruling was in their favor, so I stand to believe that the show will be on with no restrictions.
See ya all on Sunday |

Would it not be safe to assume that he meant it was on as it was first thought with sales allowed? If it had restrictions on it then would he not have mentioned them? |

good news .. I am very pleased to inform you all that the IHS Breeders Meeting will be taking place this Sunday as scheduled.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support it is very much appreciated. I will post more information in due course but I want to keep it short and sweet for now as I want, no need a beer, or three.
Look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Sunday.
Regards, Chris
Open Letter to:
Michael Hart, Chief Executive - Doncaster Cultural Leisure Trust cc Jo Miller, Chief Executive - Doncaster Borough Council
Re: International Herpetological Breeders Meeting 17th of June 2012
Dear Michael,
Further to our correspondence of yesterday, as you are aware the case was heard today in the High Court of Justice Chancery Division, London this afternoon and I have just been informed the injunction has been granted. Documentation will be served upon yourselves shortly.
It is with deep regret that we had to resort to such action and we firmly believe that this was only necessary because of the intervention of third parties. Although a cost ordered has been awarded against Doncaster Cultural Leisure Trust, the Federation of British Herpetologists will not seek to enforce this.
The International Herpetological Society Breeder’s Meeting will now take place on Sunday the 17th of June as planned and I fully expect this to be an enjoyable day for all concerned. Clearly some fanatical members of Animal Rights organisation will be dissatisfied and it may be prudent that we discuss additional security arrangement in view of this.
Our solicitors have served formal notice on Doncaster Borough Council with regards to the legality of the event, and out of courtesy I have forwarded you a copy for your own information.
There have also been completely unfounded allegations of animal welfare issues and in order to ensure that the highest standards are maintained several months ago we commissioned Tim Wass MBE to conduct an independent animal welfare inspection of this year’s event. Mr Wass was, until recently, the Chief Officer of the RSPCA and has an unrivalled reputation in his field, with an uncompromising approach to animal welfare standards.
Yours sincerely,
Chris Newman Chairman Federation of British Herpetologists
