Following reports from the public, the case referred to by the Deputy was investigated by officers of my Department.  Despite weather conditions not being ideal, a veterinary examination of the animals did not disclose concerns regarding their welfare. 

Any further information made available to my Department through the Animal Welfare Helpline will, of course, be investigated.
