HC Deb 17 March 1920 vol 126 cc2230-1W
Mr. CROOKS

asked the Home Secretary whether, seeing that if a dog attacks a human being the owner is not responsible for the first offence and is responsible if the dog attacks a chicken, he will propose an amendment of the law to remove this anomaly?

Mr. SHORTT

I am afraid that in the present state of pressure upon Parliamentary time I cannot undertake to introduce legislation on this subject.
