Tenby councillors need to decide whether they want horse drawn rides to continue in the centre of the town following a recent incident where a dog was run over by a carriage. Speaking at Tuesday night's meeting of the town council, Clr. Mrs. Tish Rossiter said that after reading the response of the operator in the Observer last week, she said that some of the statement was 'not quite right as it happened.' "The next accident could be a child which is frightening," she told to her colleagues. Mayor, Clr. Mrs. Sue Lane, said that the town council had discussed licensing issues surrounding horse drawn carriage rides in general at their last meeting, and then the following day, the accident involving a dog, which later died occurred, leaving her asking the question whether the rides should operate in the town full stop. Town clerk Mr. Andrew Davies said that the incident did take up a lot of his time in the three days after it occurred and that he had contacted Pembrokeshire County Council's street care manager Marc Owen and traffic engineer Ben Blake, along with the town's police Inspector Mark McSweeney, over the matter. "The county council have no regulatory control over the horse drawn carriage ride as it is, as it is not classed as a hackney carriage service under its licence, which is why we received correspondence from the authority at our previous meeting, looking into formalising the way in which horse drawn carriage providers operated within the walled town, as certain classes of carriage are exempt from the licensing process," explained Mr. Davies. Clr. Lawrence Blackhall requested that the operators supplied an updated risk assessment document to the town council.
