tabling member constituency	Warley
tabling member printed	John Spellar
uin	166311
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/03/2021 answer text <p>Defra does not hold data on the number of individuals charged with and convicted of puppy smuggling related offences. Local authorities are the enforcement and prosecution body for puppy smuggling related offences. In 2020, the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) was notified of two prosecutions by local authorities under the following legislation: The Welfare of Animals (Transport)(England) Order 2006, The Animal Health Act 1981, The Rabies (Importation of Dogs, Cats and Other Mammals) Order 1974 and The Trade in Animals and Related Products Regulations 2011. However, local authorities are not required to notify Defra or APHA of prosecutions related to puppy smuggling and so this figure may not represent the total number of cases. We suspect the low number of prosecutions reported for 2020 was a result of courts being closed and cases delayed due to the Coronavirus pandemic.</p> answering member constituency Banbury answering member printed Victoria Prentis question first answered 18/03/2021 15:45:26 answering member 4401 label Biography information for Victoria Prentis
