Animal Legislation

The SPCA has long felt that local animal legislation is outmoded. In many instances it is not even relevant to current needs and situations. Local legislation is piecemeal, there are a number of ordinances relating to our animals; Protection of animals ordinance, Animal Trespass Ordinance, Dogs and Cats Ordinance, Agriculture and Livestock Improvement Ordinance. These documents in some cases overlap and in others there are a number of crucial omissions.

As such the SPCA is currently in the process of carrying out a comparison of local laws with UK legislation with a view to making recommendations to create a new Animal Ordinance which is relevant to local needs and provides for the care and protection of all animals.

We would like to use this forum to invite you to comment on this project, we have had discussions with one of the stakeholders who has agreed to submit comments and any further comments will be gratefully received.
