uin	200223
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2023 answer text <p>The ban on e-collars under the Animal Welfare (Electronic Collars) (England) Regulations will only apply to collars controlled by hand-held devices that deliver an electric shock to cats or dogs. The ban will not extend to collars which emit a vibration, spray or other non-shock stimulus.</p><p> </p><p>There is concern that e-collars can cause harm and redirect aggression or generate anxiety-based behaviour in pets. This risks making underlying behavioural problems, such as aggression towards other pets, worse. We would advise all owners who are concerned about controlling their dog’s behaviour to take advice from their vet or a suitably qualified dog behaviourist or trainer.</p> answering member constituency Copeland answering member printed Trudy Harrison question first answered 16/10/2023 16:20:37 answering member 4593 label Biography information for Trudy Harrison

As of June 2023, there are 108 pathways currently in place with the aim to have national coverage by March 2024.</p><p>To encourage people to see their general practitioner if they notice symptoms that could be cancer, NHS England runs the ‘Help Us, Help You’ campaigns, which address the barriers that deter patients from accessing the NHS.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 16/10/2023 14:18:08 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince
