sch.8-sec.11 Design, construction and maintenance of facilities
The organiser for a rodeo must ensure— each chute, fence, gate and race used at the rodeo— is structurally sound; and is designed to allow rodeo animals to be handled quietly and efficiently; and is constructed and maintained to minimise the risk of injury to rodeo animals; and each chute used at the rodeo is large enough to allow a rodeo animal in the chute to stand freely; and each arena, lane and yard used at the rodeo is large enough to minimise the risk of injury being caused to a rodeo animal by contacting the fence bounding the arena, lane or yard; and each yard used at the rodeo is large enough to allow the rodeo animals in the yard to— move reasonably freely; and lie down and rise without help.
