Austin Currie

Question:

121 Mr. Currie asked the Minister for Justice the regulations which exist for controlling the breeding, sale and ownership of rottweillers, pit bull terriers and bandogs; if he is satisfied that such regulations are sufficient; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Justice (Mr. Burke)

The Control of Dogs Act, 1986, provides for the licensing and control of dogs. I have no responsibilities under that legislation.
