Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture and Food

Dog Control and Sheep-Worrying: Discussion

2:00 am

Joanne Collins (Sinn Fein)

I thank all the witnesses for attending. It is great to see so many organisations agreeing on one important point. To go back to the controlling powers, it is not possible to have 100,000 dog wardens, but prevention is definitely better than cure. Do the witnesses agree that we need to increase the number of dog wardens? Looking at them county by county, apart from in Dublin and Cork, the maximum number of wardens in a county is three.
