HC Deb 01 April 1968 vol 762 cc19-20W
87. Mr. R. W. Elliott

asked the Attorney-General if he will introduce legislation to provide compensation for persons injured by animals on the highway in urban areas.

The Attorney-General

The law relating to civil liability for damage done by animals was the subject of a recent Report by the Law Commission. This is being studied by my noble Friend the Lord Chancellor with a view to the introduction of amending legislation when an opportunity arises.
