Strengthen the Animal Welfare Act 2006

Summary

Amend the Animal Welfare Act 2006 to include the following policies: -Registered Breeder Index -Canine Competency Certificate -Cruelty Policing Unit -Harsher criminal penalties We believe there is an animal welfare crisis and that these policies could address it. We think that since the introduction of the XL Bully ban there has been an increase of neglect, cruelty and abandonment cases to all dogs around the UK. We think that police officers do not have the time/resources to combat this and believe the RSPCA do not have sufficient legal powers to investigate or prosecute therefore a vicious circle occurs, animals suffer, perpetrators can escape justice and rescues pick up the damage in a never ending battle.
