HC Deb 04 July 1991 vol 194 c207W
21. Mr. Ian Bruce

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what measures he plans to take to ensure existing and future dog control legislation is enforced by the police.

Mrs. Rumbold

We have discussed the measures in the Dangerous Dogs Bill with the Association of Chief Police Officers and the Metropolitan police, who support the action that the Government are taking to tackle the problem of dangerous dogs. We shall issue guidance to the police on enforcement of the legislation when it is enacted.
