<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>
