112. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if he is aware that Veterinary Ireland has set up a specialised group which has reviewed the current Control of Dogs Act 1998 regulations; and if he will seek the advice from both Veterinary Ireland and other experts, including a person (details supplied) regarding the current regulations.

I understand that Veterinary Ireland is undertaking an in-depth policy review at present, which includes, inter alia, an examination of the effectiveness of the Control of Dogs Regulations 1998. As this review, which is a matter solely for Veterinary Ireland, has not yet been finalised, it would be inappropriate for me to comment further at this time.
