One issue arises. During my time on a local authority, I saw that this work was contracted out to a particular body with service level agreements. The lines of accountability are very much flawed and blurred or maybe are weak or do not exist in some cases. I will ask Ms Hurley this question directly. Will dog wardens be contracted in or will they be employees of local authorities in order that there is a straight line of accountability?
