The High Court ruled against the take over of runnings at the municipal animal pound, by animal welfare organisations, on Wednesday.
Animal Anti Cruelty League -AACL, and its ally -the SPCA, brought an application, seeking to interdict the Municipality’s appointed service provider and to manage the municipal animal pound.
The application also sought to compel the Municipality to hand over pound records, and financial resources to either the AACL or the SPCA.
The outcome is the Municipality’s animal care services will continue uninterrupted, including feeding, access to water, veterinary care and facility maintenance.
