The working group on the control of dogs is comprised of officials from my Department, the Department of Rural and Community Development and representatives of the County and City Managers Association (CCMA), including representatives of local authority dog wardens and local authority veterinary inspectors, and representatives of An Garda Síochána. The group includes three qualified veterinarians.

It is within the remit of this working group to engage with subject matter experts as appropriate.
