answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/04/2024 answer text <p>The Government firmly believes that Section 1 of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 plays a very important part in our overall approach towards tackling dangerous dogs. The existing legal framework for dog control equips the police and local authorities with appropriate powers to tackle dangerous dogs and irresponsible dog ownership. We are working in partnership with the police, local authorities and animal welfare organisations to ensure that the full range of existing dog control powers are effectively applied to encourage responsible dog ownership and reduce the risk of dog attacks.</p> answering member constituency Sherwood answering member printed Sir Mark Spencer question first answered 22/04/2024 14:45:42 answering member 4055 label Biography information for Sir Mark Spencer
