Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Dog Breeding Establishments Act 2010 and the Control of Dogs Act 1986: Discussion

Ms Bairbre Nic Aongusa:

I thank the Deputy. We regularly engage with local authorities and get a sense from them of what is happening. The important thing to emphasise is that we publish the statistics and information that local authorities send us. In general, local authorities would probably be more appropriately able to answer those questions. I do not know if my colleagues have any further information on that.
