Ms Nanci Creedon:

The Deputy makes a great point. Perhaps mandatory pet insurance should be part of the legislation so that if something does happen, at least there is funding there and there are repercussions. Legally, every dog should be microchipped so it should be pretty easy to identify which dog is responsible if a dog runs out in front of a car and causes damage. You can identify that dog through being able to scan it and find its chip. That is there. That is the legislation. It is implemented and followed pretty well. Most dogs are chipped. Obviously a small population of owners are still not doing it. Is that what the Deputy is looking at in terms of us being able to identify dogs?
